TELUGU: 1 Alphabet.1 Vowels.3

Review:

అ (a): “o” in “come”

ఆ (aa): “a” in “far”

ఇ (i): “i” in “bit” / “ee” in “eek!!!”

ఈ (ee): “ee” in “feel”

Pronunciation

ఉ (u) : “oo” in “wood”

ఊ (uu): “oo” in “cool”

I’d really recommend listening to audio of these letters! These particular sounds exist in several languages but not really in English.

Also, if a word begins with ఉ it will often be pronounced more like ‘vu’ (because it sounds more fluid)

Script

Vocab

ఉppu – salt

ఉlli – onion

ఉngaram – Ring

ఉndi – is/have

ఉnnaayi – are (plural of ఉndi, we’ll get to this in the grammar section!)

ఊha – Imagination

ఊhalu – Dreams

ఊpiri – Breath

ఊyala – Swing

TELUGU: 0.1 Why learn Telugu?

So I’m (finally) going to start making posts about how to learn Telugu because the lack of resources on Tumblr for this language compared to other ones just makes me :( and the appalling ancientness of resources on the internet at large and in India for the English speaker make me >:(

But that’s a given, you might say, considering that all those other languages are clearly more popular and useful! So here is an under-researched starter pack of Why We Should All Learn Telugu Aside From the Fact That I’m Learning to Speak It and the Lack of Clear Online Resources is Appalling I Gotta Say

Alternatively: Telugu Appreciation post

1.       It’s Language #3 with the most native speakers in India (after Hindi and Bengali) which isn’t too shabby considering India has 22 Official Languages

2.       Learn Telugu and you will open doors into the glory of South India (Dark blue has the highest concentration of Telugu speakers etc.) and I’m not saying South India is better than North India but it is underappreciated

3.       It’s #15 of the most spoken languages worldwide so you don’t have to move to India to get use out of it

4.       It’s 1/6 of the classical languages of India according to the Indian Govt and I’ve seen it called the most musical of the Indian languages, it was the language of choice for Carnatic classical music writers back in the day

5.       It’s got a lot of Sanskrit influence, so learning Telugu will help you with Sanskrit and other Sanskrit-influenced languages like Hindi

6.       This one capital K king with a huge empire consisting of ALL OF SOUTH INDIA ALL OF IT named Krishna Deva Raya loved Telugu so much he basically caused the golden age of Telugu Lit and if it’s good enough for him it’s good enough for you

Bonus: if you learn Telugu you’ll be able to say his name perfectly

7.       Did I mention the script looks like this?

8.      It’s a Dravidian language which has very little practical meaning but according to my one friend “sounds cool” so now you know

9.       Telugu has a Subject-Object-Verb structure so learning this language will help you wrap your mind around the grammar of other languages later; it’s made learning Japanese super chill for me because I just have to learn the vocab and then plug them into the grammar structure I’ve already made in my brain for Telugu

10.      Also Telugu is a language that picks up a lot of loan words from other languages, so if you speak English you will probably be able to speak to a native Telugu speaker and be understood even with limited Telugu vocab by substituting in common English words (so you can be conversational super quick!)

11.      Fun cultural stuff like lots of great Movies with super cute actors and actresses, Music, Food, Classical Music, Dance, Poetry, etc etc etc

Extra special bonus: The pleasure of my company as your language guide

@deep_sarbadhikari tells us about an issue a lot of us might be a part of yet it is up to us to solve it - balancing multilingualism. He explains this with a relatable scenario - "Imagine you are a 25 year old Nepali boy who hails from Darjeeling but now living in Calcutta. You go to work and have a great working rapport with your colleagues. But to be able to survive linguistically, you need to master 4 languages if not more. Why? You need to know your Nepali well so that you can talk to you family back home. You need to know Bengali and Hindi in order to go about your daily life and 'fit-in' amongst colleagues. You need to know your English extremely well so that you are taken seriously at work. Inspite of that, you are being tagged as 'that lanky little Nepali guy from Darjeeling' who is 'different.' The accusations sometimes surmount to something where he allegedly responsible for spreading Corona virus and is spoiling the rich culture of the city by indulging in "too much drugs" because aren't all guys from North East junkies and interested in rock music?" . Do you multilingualism is a wonderful skill to have or is it a divisive machinery which splits people into subconscious groups?
