What is the best (most poetic) way of calling someone elegant? The Google translator says ಸೊಬಗು, but that feels more like wealthy than elegant? Let's say for example one had to compliment a girl by saying she looks very elegant? Not in the sparkling, flashy way....but more like in the silent, simple and subtle way?

I want to learn Kannada but I do not live in India. There is a Kannada organization in my school but I don't think they teach Kannada. I feel happy when listening to people talk Kannada. How should I go about learning?

I wanna build my knowledge base. I’m not trying to win any awards or become fluent. But I want elementary understanding of written Kannada, grammar and idioms, and currently I have a strong grasp of spoken Kannada.

ಕೆಲವು ದಿನಗಳ ಹಿಂದೆ ಹೀಗೆ ಮಾತಾಡುವಾಗ ಒಬ್ಬರು ಹಿಂದಿಯವರು, ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರಿಗಿಂತ ಬೇರೆಯವರೆ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಅಂತ ಹೇಳಿದ್ರು. ಇದು ನಿಜವಾ? ಹೀಗಾದ ಪಕ್ಷದಲ್ಲಿ ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರ ಮೇಲೆ ಆಗುವ ದುಷ್ಪರಿಣಾಮಗಳೇನು, ನಿಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರಕಾರ?

I am trying to read more Kannada, in particular, modern literature/fiction. I am in the USA. Can anyone recommend a place that sells Kannada books that ships to the USA (without charging a small fortune)? I found some websites online that claim to ship everywhere but I am not sure if they are reliable or trustworthy.

Correction: Title should say 'Kannada literature', not 'Kannada fiction'

Are there any well-known contemporary Kannada authors who have included realistic portrayals of Bangalore in their work be it fiction or non-fiction? I am talking about day to day life, well known landmarks and locations, common man's life. As an example take Peter Colaco's work in English.

Hello everyone, not so long ago, when I was watching Telugu biggboss, a lady used a kannada saying which roughly meant, just because the dogs bark doesn't make the heavens any bad. Can anyone tell me the actual saying

Hey guys, I've recently been trying to improve my kannada vocabulary and started reading kannada novels. I have started off with Jugari Cross. I find the meaning to most words on the amazing alar website/app + a little help from gpt. However, I cannot find the meaning to a few words and decided I should post here for some help!

Context of the word: "... ನಮಗೂ ರಗಳೆ ಇರೋದಿಲ್ಲ, ನಿಮ್ಗೂ ರಗಲೆ ಇರೋಡಿಲ" ಎಂದು ಹುಸಿ ವಿನಯ ಮತ್ತು ಕಾನೂನು ಶ್ರದ್ಧೆ ನಟಿಸುತ್ತಾ...

When I checked their individual meaning, It said ಹುಸಿ is to lie and ವಿನಯ is to be polite. So I didn't understand the context when these two words are joined together.

Thanks a ton ♥️

We have filled it for Kannada, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kolami, Kurukh and even started Brahui. But don’t have anything for Kodava which is spoken in Karnataka.

Hi; I'm born and brought up in Bengaluru, but never grew up speaking fluent Kannada as it's not my native language. Despite this from my childhood I've wished to learn the language as it is the language of my state and I don't want to be clubbed along with those who come to Karnataka but don't speak the language. I had the option to learn it in school as well but my parents made me learn Hindi thinking that I would pick up Kannada on my own, but it didn't happen.
I would like to learn the language better, but I don't find time to take classes due to a tightly packed schedule; despite this, I would really like to learn it nevertheless. Are there any resources, apps or websites that teach it?

I'm from Delhi, and I've been learning Kannada for the last 10 months. I have written an article on my blog about the strategies and resources I've been using. Other people may find it useful, so here's the link:

Please let me know if you have any comments or suggestions.

We all know Kaanthara and KGF but I'm sure there are amazing movies in Kannada which hasn't been come to light. According to you what are those?

There are just 3-5 Kannada movies on Netflix. Also the Kannada audio option won't be available, but other languages will have it.

Martin Scorsese, George Lucas Team to Restore India's 'Ghatashraddha' (variety.com)

I think they do this to only ensure the serial gets more episodes. In one of the serials my grandmother watches, the hero gets blamed for killing his mom (he dint do it). And mind you, the hero enters seeing his mom stabbed, the mom points at the culprit escaping, the hero doesn’t even pay attention to her😂 and keeps asking what happened ma. culprit escapes. Also the actual killer is the hero’s brother. This hero removes the knife from his mother’s stomach to find the police entering the room to find him with the knife😂 and obviously they think he did it.

In the end, which is quite shocking, they just give the knife back, to family members who also arrive. I mean, the serious evidence of murder, the weapon is just given back. The hero doesn’t get his rights read, doesn’t get a lawyer. Nothing, while the policemen just taunt him asking him to shutup while he yells he dint do it 😪😪😪

Hello, I’m a Telugu speaker trying to learn Kannada. I live in the US and was wondering what’s the best way to learn the language. Are there any apps like Duolingo that helps to get started or are there any instructors that teach remotely? Thank you very much!!

I watched the movie Shakhahaari this weekend and I was pleasantly surprised. I went in with low expectations, but I ended up really enjoying this mystery/thriller. "ಅಭಿನಯಾಸುರ" Rangayana Raghu's performance was outstanding and the music composition was also very good.

The only disappointing thing was that the movie only had a limited release in Bengaluru, with only 10 shows. This is a shame because it is a well-made film that deserves more recognition and appreciation. I wish more people would watch it and support Kannada cinema. We need to support good films, not just those with big stars.

Here are some of the things I liked about the movie:

• story is engaging and suspenseful. • acting is top-notch, especially from Rangayana Raghu. • music is beautiful and haunting. • The cinematography is excellent.

The fact that bigg Boss is the most enjoyable reality show now really says something

All the cringe jokes , big actor feet lickings everything are so bad

What happened to those reality shows like pyate hudugi hali life or pyate Mandi kadive bandru or nodi Swami naavirodhu heege or dance dance or Indian. They all were so good. Why don't our people consume more of such content instead of those sa re ga ma shit which is 3/4th monkey stuff and 1/4th music.

It's a reality show sanchit couldn't win :D

I enjoyed reading books of poornachandra tejaswi, Da ra Bendre. Can someone recommend some good authors I can read from this generation.
