I'm a nomad, trying to fit in a society of mads.

[Tulupedia @tulupedia]

Today, we are excited to share one of the most significant infrastructure upgrades in Tulupedia's journey so far.
At Tulupedia, our mission has always been clear: to preserve, document, and promote Tulu language, culture, history, and heritage through technology.

[Tulupedia @tulupedia]

Knowledge grows when communities come together to preserve and share it.

Tulupedia was founded with a simple vision: to create a digital home for the language, history, culture, and heritage of Tulunad for present and future generations.

@isreemadhuri @MIB_India @PIB_India Hey did you hear back from PRGI?
I'm having a similar issue.

My magazine title registration has been stuck with PRGI for months after compliance submission. An online meeting was scheduled without any timing details, and support emails received no response.

@cobbaltt Neyi is Ghee
Bolneyi is butter
cīya / tiga / toḍḍe ta neyi is honey
Mojaṇṭi da neyi is dammer bee honey

Sadly I see the #Tulu word neyi is being replaced by tuppa in many household in #Tulunad.

@Red_Zone555 @Malotru_DGSE There is no such rules/conditions that a language has to be any state's official language in order to be included in 8th schedule of the Indian Constitution.

[Nischith G Ramakunja @Jayaghosh_]

My language doesn’t need recognition because it is 2,500–3,000 years old; it needs recognition because it deserves it.
No one should be looked down upon for speaking their own tongue in their own land, the very place where the language evolved.

[Nischith G Ramakunja @Jayaghosh_]

@spicyboy154 @Red_Zone555 First of all Tulu is not a dead language. Yes, It is in endangered languages list thanks to State government and Central government.
And nobody is asking to make it official all iver karnataka!!

[Nischith G Ramakunja @Jayaghosh_]

@Red_Zone555 There are several reasons including negligence & cowardice of our politiians. One such reason can be found in the another reply to your tweet. Hatred these people have towards other language of the state will always oppose any reforms to recognise Tulu.

@Red_Zone555 @Jayaghosh_ Hindi terrorist first learn history for more than 1000 years kannada was only the official language of Karnataka 🤣not like ur lundi

[Nischith G Ramakunja @Jayaghosh_]

I sincerely thank KA Governor @TCGEHLOT for asking the state government to review its decision to replace marks with grades for the third language in SSLC exams. Thereby helping minority languages like #Tulu to retain the little importance given in Ed sys.

Today is #InternationalMotherLanguageDay

Every language has a word for mother. In #Tulu we say "Appæ" for mother.

Appæ Bāsæ (written here in #TuluScript) means Mother Tounge or #MotherLanguage

Materegla Viśva Appæ bāsæ dinota eḍḍeppulu
