Telugu is the predominant language of the state of Andhra Pradesh. It is a Dravidian language.
Telugu is one of the official languages of India. It is called "Italian of the East" because all words in Telugu ends with a vowel sound.
In Telugu, the verb is conjugated for negation and interrogation, as well as tense. For example:
| naaku telusu I know | naaku telusaa do I know? |
| naaku teliyadu I don't know | naaku teliyadaa don't I know? |
The Telugu script is phonetic in nature. It appears quite similar to the Kannada language script. It is assigned Unicode codepoints: 0C00-0C7F (3072-3199).
