online kannada Course details
Kannada is an Agglutinative language (ag·glu·ti·nate: /əˈɡlo͞otnˌāt/ combine (simple words or parts of words) without change of form to express compound ideas e.g. in English plural - book-books ಪುಸ್ತಕ-ಪುಸ್ತಕಗಳು pus.ta.ka-pus.ta.ka.ga.Lu) where Nouns and Verbs are inflected with suffixes that express various grammatical relationships. While this process is observed in some words in English, it is heavily used in every noun, verb, and other part of a sentence.
Our teaching methodology introduces these concepts in a simple form and expands the sentences to show how changes occur. It also provides variations in speech vs written forms to help a listener and reader discern the differences.
