Manju

Kannada · Karnataka

> “ನಮಸ್ಕಾರ! ನಾನು ಮಂಜು, ವಾಕ್ಯೋ ಇಂದ ಮಾತಾಡ್ತಿದ್ದೀನಿ. ನಿಮ್ಮ ಆರ್ಡರ್ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಫೋನ್ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದೀನಿ. ಈಗ ಎರಡು ನಿಮಿಷ ಮಾತಾಡಬಹುದಾ?”

Hello! I'm Manju, calling from Vaakyo about your order. Is this a good time to talk for two minutes?

On the phone

## How Kannada **sounds on a call**

Kannada on a business call is polite and a little formal: "heli", "maadi", with sir and madam as often as in English. In Bengaluru callers mix in English constantly; in north Karnataka they stay in Kannada, with their own turns of phrase.

The agent speaks spoken Kannada rather than the written form, understands the English words in between, and reads ₹1,500 as "saavirada ainooru".
