its good I am trying to pick up some kannada as i wish to come over there.

One of my Colleagues from North discovered the magic word Swalpa. He uses this at the start of all conversations @ the angadi,@chaishop you name it.
Will certainly have him read your post. Waiting for more along the same line..
It would be great if you can conversation at petrol bunk
this is really helpful thank you so much...
thanx for it.That was indeed helpful.But i would appreaciate if there is more of it,because there r many things i would like to learn,especially a beginner like me,to be able to ask my maid to do the household activities.ex.cleaning the floor,washing utensils,etc.How do u convey such things?anyway the above was indeed helpful.
Thanks for part-1
I am searching for "At what time she will come today as she is late" but i only got "At what time she will come tomo"
