Telugu language and its importance

India is a melting pot of various cultures, languages and ethnicity. Among the various languages of India, Telugu is spoken widely in the southern part of India, in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Written in a Brahmic alphabet, Telugu is a Dravidian language. Apart from Andhra Pradesh, Telugu has its speakers in Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Pondicherry and Orissa. Outside India, it is spoken by Telugu diaspora in Australia, Ireland, Bahrain, Mauritius, UAE, Canada, Singapore, the UK, the USA and more. Considered as the most spoken Dravidian language, Telugu is one of the 22 scheduled languages of India. Just like Sanskrit, Tamil and Kannada; Telugu is a classical language. Sanskrit, the ancient Indian language, which is a mother language to many other languages, has majorly influenced the Telugu language. But if you travel to areas around Hyderabad, the capital of Andhra Pradesh, you will find that the Telugu spoken there has been influenced by Urdu as well. There are various dialects of Telugu language such as Dommara, Dasari, Golari, Berad, Vijayawada, Godavari and many more. Standard Telugu, also known as “Shudda Telugu”is mostly spoken in Andhra Pradesh. After Hindi and Bengali, Telugu is the 3rd most spoken language in the Indian sub-continent.
