Descrizione

About the Book:-Through this discourse the author has made a good attempt to unravel the truth behind the mixed dialects and foreign words used in Telugu. Earlier, the government business in Southern India is chiefly transacted in the language of the Hindus, either Tamil, Telugu, Kannadi, Malayalam or Marata ; while the Musulmans still speak Hindustani (as well as the local native tongue) but Hindustani is seldom written. The long continued dominion of the Musulmans introduced many foreign words into the various Hindu languages. Thus the modern Telugu contains a variety of Persian and Arabic expressions. In later years, some English words have crept into use. The present vocabulary of the mixed dialects therefore forms a requisite supplement to a dictionary of the Telugu language: and it contains only those phrases which are current among the natives. Indeed the business dialect also may be considered another language, often deviating both in words and Syntax from correct Telugu.
