Kavya

Tamil · Tamil Nadu

> “வணக்கம்! நான் காவ்யா, வாக்யோவிலிருந்து பேசுகிறேன். உங்கள் ஆர்டர் பற்றி அழைத்தேன். இப்போது இரண்டு நிமிடம் பேசலாமா?”

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

On the phone

## How Tamil **sounds on a call**

Tamil has a wide gap between the written language and what people say. "Naalaikku saayangaalam koopidunga" is how a caller asks for a call-back, not the textbook form, and English verbs come with Tamil endings: drive panren, cancel pannunga.

Respect is carried by -nga at the end of a verb: sollunga, vaanga. The agent uses it with every caller, and says ₹1,500 as "aayirathu ainooru", the way it's said aloud.
