Talk:Tulu language

message: This is totally biased wiki page..There is more kannada inscriptions an influence(proof) found in these regions...for the time of recorded history (about for 2000 years or so) there remains kannada as the official language in this part of region..so why so much of nataka now ??..so if any tulu always co-existed with kannada..besides names of the places/oldest inscriptions found in this region speaks of kannada language...tulu is mostly oral language in this region..
This kind of exaggeration of tulu over kannada is totally unwarranted and uncalled for...it's an insult to tulu and tulu speaking people  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.225.129.143 (talk) 05:13, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: Language Grammar and other language features

message: When a dialect like Kannada can get classical status, why not Tulu which is more original? Kannada doesnt even have its own word for 'language', leave alone 'classical'!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.195.13.109 (talk) 15:42, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Classical status for Tulu

message: Commissioner for Linguistic Minorities 43th Report says: “Books for introduction of Tulu in class one and two may be prepared. If necessary, Tulu Academy in Karnataka can be contacted. Their books are in Kannada script. The script to be used in Kerala can be decided in consultation with the Tulu speaking people.” suggesting that probably Tulu will be written in Malayalam script in Kerala. If so, adding "Tulu" in the Malayalam script, as one editor tried several hours ago, might be actually a possible option. Though, it's still unclear which script is going to be used in Kerala to write Tulu. —Gyopi (talk) 18:52, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Tulu written in Malayalam script

message: I learned that, unlike in English, a stress accent is unimportant in a Dravidian language. For now, I'll remove a mark to show a stress accent (a vertical line) for 'Tulu baase' in Tulu. If it should be read like Tulu baase with clear stress accent, I'll mark it again, but for now, I've become unsure about it and would like to remove what may be wrong or unnecessary... :) —Gyopi (talk) 13:27, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

message: is it worth mentioning that tulu speakers also speak Kannada as it is the state lingo?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.124.247.56 (talk) 11:54, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: influenece of kannada

message: The whole section is uncited but do look at Tamil lanuage etymology section. There are two linguists whose points of views are written clearly as to what they say. I have read and no longer have the RS sources that say Tamil, Tulu and Telugu are etymologically connected. I.E it derived from a Proto South Dravidian word for our language or just language. If I find that source then I will add it, meanwhile someone who has written the curent etymology section should also cite what is in there. Kanatonian (talk) 23:48, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Good article nomination 

message: Is the Tuḷu bāse in the first line of the articles is right usage. I believe bāse comes from "Basha" of the sanskrit, so it is a Indo-European loan word, not the original tulu word. There should be a tulu word for "language".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rajraowiki (talk • contribs) 13:52, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Tuḷu bāse 

message: Within the first line of the lede, this article states that Tulu has 10 million native speakers. A couple lines down, it blatantly contradicts this, saying there are around 2 million, as of 2011. Which one of these figures is correct?
