Introduction
Learning Kannada is a rewarding, fascinating, and occasionally frustrating experience. Yet sometimes the most challenging thing can be finding good learning resources and – especially if you’re not in Karnataka – practice opportunities. Never fear: we’re here to give you recommendations on the best ways as well as several study tips. We’ll also explore how difficult Kannada is and the best way to learn the Kannada Language.
Tips that will help you to learn Kannada
1. Set Specific Goals
You need goals that will motivate you! For example, you might want to be able to read a particular book in Kannada that at the moment is impossible to get through. You might want to watch a particular film without annoying subtitles. It helps to think more specifically than “I want to be able to speak Kannada ” or “I want to be fluent.” If you instead ask yourself, “Why do I want to be fluent?” and make a list of the things that you would enjoy doing if you were, you’ll be better able to set milestones for yourself and recognize when you reach one.
2. Create a study plan
Now you know what you want to study, decide how and when you’re going to do it. But be realistic! If you’re a busy person, you’re unlikely to have two hours a day, seven days a week to study. Go at a manageable rhythm. You don’t want to dread your study sessions. And if you’re struggling to fit them in, try to study for less time but more frequently. It will be more effective than a long, intense session of cramming once a week.
3. Track your progress
It can be hard to see your progress on a day-to-day basis, and this can make learning a language demotivating. Some days, you’ll feel like your listening ability has deteriorated. Other days, you’ll struggle to remember “basic” vocabulary that you learned and drilled five months ago, only to never use again. (After all, how often do you say the words “mouse,” “accountant,” and “ice” in everyday life?) First, don’t feel bad about this: it is a normal part of learning a language and doesn’t actually mean your Kannada knowledge has decreased. In fact, if you track your progress, you will still see an overall improvement.
4. Invest in Quality Learning Materials
As it’s important to invest time in your Arabic education, it’s also important to be willing to invest a little money. However, the best resources aren’t always the most expensive ones.The best resources for you are going to depend on your individual learning methods and what’s available to you
5. Join Online Communities
Your learning method will always be specific to you, but you are never totally alone. Although methods may differ, many language learners encounter the same obstacles and find themselves asking the same questions. Join online classes by downloading applications like Multibhashi
Multibhashi is a platform to learn languages effectively and effortlessly. Multibhashi offers more than 30 languages.
6. Pay attention while traveling via locals
If you are a user of public transport, carefully listen to co-passengers conversations. Focus on How people converse with each other in Kannada. Most importantly, implement it. Talk to the Bus conductors, auto drivers, vendors, shopkeepers in Kannada. Again, don’t hesitate to talk. Nobody will judge. Trust me when I say nothing makes a Kannadiga happier than watching a non-Kannadiga make an effort to talk in our language.
7. Do not hesitate.
Speak the language at every possible opportunity. Even if you make mistakes, people will only be happy to help you (with a smile). And, if they respond to you in Hindi/English or any other language, insist that they reply in Kannada.
8. Watch Kannada movies
Watching Kannada movies (preferably with subtitles) can be of great help.
Conclusion
So, try out a Kannada course, book classes with a teacher, and start reading the imaginative novels of some of Karnataka’s greatest authors. It won’t be long until you’re speaking Kannada with confidence.
ALL THE BEST:)
