Sanskrit words. I hope you already know the alphabet of Telugu language and its pronunciation too.They are similar to that of Sanskrit/Hindi languages. If you don't know them there are other websites that can help you in this regard.You can mail me or write a comment if you want me to include the alphabet too in this site. Take a look at these words. I have written Telugu script, its transcription/transliteration in English and its meaning in English. For reading the transliteration see the guidelines below.

GUIDELINES FOR PRONOUNCING THE TRANSLITERATED TEXT:
Subscribe
The letter 'i' stands for the sound 'i' in the word 'kick', or the short pronunciation of the alphabet letter 'e'
Delivered by FeedBurner
The letter 'I' stands for the sound 'ee' in the word 'cheek'
SUBSCRIBE IN A READER
The letter 'e' stands for the sound of the short pronunciation of the letter 'a' as the first 'e' in the word 'elephant' Subscribe in a reader
The letter 'E' stands for the sound 'a' in the word 'base' The letter 'o' stands for the sound of the short pronunciation of the letter 'o'
FOLLOWERS
The letter 'O' stands for the sound 'o' in the word 'more' or the the long pronunciation of the letter 'o' Pronounce consonants like 'k', 't', 'd', etc as their sound indicates. Addition of 'h' to them: Pronounce 'th' as 'th' in 'thumb', 'dh' as 'th' in 'that'/'this' and so on. Simplifications for simplicity: thth = tth, dhdh=ddh and so on. For example kaththi (knife) = katthi, vadhdhu (don't want) = vaddhu, etc For consonants, lower case letter indicates normal pronunciation and capital letter indicates pronunciation with stress e.g., katthi(knife), Kadgam(sword) observe the case of 'k' in both. For the sound of 'j' in 'junk' I use 'j', for the sound of 'g' in 'gum' I use 'g'. For example ginger will be transliterated to jinjar according to this rule. 's' indicates normal pronunciation as in 'sum'. 'S' indicates pronunciation of 's' as in 'sat', 'sad',etc. In Hindi/Sanskrit also there are these two different versions of 'sa' as you all know. Apply same thing to letter 'v' also. 'v' indicates normal pronunciation like 'v' in 'vault' and 'V' indicates pronunciation of 'v' as in 'van'. Note that both are two very different pronunciations and if one is used instead of other, it won't sound good!. But one thing to note is in written Telugu there is only one letter 'va' which will be used for both and its pronunciation depends on the word in which it is used. Only in some Telugu verb forms and when English words like 'van' are transliterated into Telugu, the 'V' sound is pronounced and mostly in all others, 'v' sound is pronounced. You will find this (the above two different ways of pronouncing the same Telugu letter) happening in few more cases like 'kA', 'chA', 'dA', 'thA', 'pA' when these are used in Telugu verb forms corresponding to 'Past tense'. Some examples for these can be found towards the end of this post in the table with references below it LABELS

Some words may not be translated exactly or it happens to be difficult to translate into English.Such type of words are to be learnt by observing their use in the sentences. Even in the above you find some words having more than one meaning, ( e.g., 'kAni' , 'ainA' )which is to say that the meaning of that particular word is dependent on the context of the sentence where it is used. Also to express something in Telugu you can do it by means of one or more different words. Come back frequently as I will be updating the site explaining you more about learning Telugu Language.
Dear Readers/Visitors, If you want me to translate a particular sentence/word in English to Telugu or vice versa, then please go here and post it as a comment there mentioning the same. I'll try to translate it for you depending on my time availability. That page also contains doubts/questions asked by readers so far and my answers to them. So you can also go through them for your benefit. Thanks

49 COMMENTS: Anonymous, 3 August 2011 at 03:06 thank you. could you post more. like translate common sentences to Telugu ?
vijay, 3 August 2011 at 07:40 thank u. waiting for more posts. then i will b able to talk to my daughter in law. thanks
Anonymous, 30 October 2011 at 08:56 Thank you....and I think it would be easier if you could make something like....a learner can type in any language and you could translate it into telugu below it or something like that.
A Telugu Guy, 30 October 2011 at 11:09 Thanks (above)Anonymous visitor for your suggestion. But I know only English properly other than Telugu. So I'll ask the visitors to post a comment if they want a particular English sentence to be translated to Telugu or vice-versa.
Anonymous, 4 November 2011 at 21:10 pz giv meaning of chesave, choosttukonte,emaindi,gumma
A Telugu Guy, 4 November 2011 at 21:46 chesave - what you did (only while referring to girls/women in a very informal way) example: While speaking to a girl if you say 'emi chesave' you are asking her what she did. If you want to ask the same thing in a respectful way say it 'emi chesaru' chusukunte - if we see (chusthe is more widely used) emaindi - what happened gumma - beauty (refers to ladies)
Anonymous, 6 November 2011 at 21:14 Thanks yaar for the meanings.
Anonymous, 7 November 2011 at 15:52 whats the meaning of "pampichu"?
A Telugu Guy, 7 November 2011 at 23:36 'pampinchu' means to send (informal). Example: naakadi pampinchu = naaku (to me) + adi(that one) + pampinchu(send) = send me that one. To ask respectfully say it 'pampinchandi'
Anonymous, 25 November 2011 at 03:36 How would you say hello?
A Telugu Guy, 25 November 2011 at 15:56 Informally (with our friends or very known ones) we will just use 'hai' or 'hai ra'(for close friends (male only)),'hai andi' (if you want to show some respect). If you want to show more respect (to unknown persons like some government officers,etc) then use 'namaskAramandi' Actually 'hello' is also used in Telugu people's day to day conversations like we can also say 'hello andi' instead of 'hai andi', etc, but it's usage is less compared to 'hai' in day to day conversations.

Anonymous, 10 January 2012 at 14:21 hi to admin.. happy to have found this site.. i am learning both hindi and telugu and wants to learn more...
Anonymous, 10 January 2012 at 15:59 wish you could convert ur every post into pdf for us to download.., that too with transliteration.. found your site very very useful.. thanks..
A Telugu Guy, 10 January 2012 at 22:00 @Above Thanks for finding it useful :) There are many websites which can convert a webpage into pdf for download. For example: www.web2pdfconvert.com. Regarding transliteration, I'll try to add it as and when I get free time. But for posts not having transliteration, it is done so deliberately to encourage the Telugu learners to learn how to read Telugu alphabet which is a part of overall learning process. It's even mentioned as point no 2 in the top left corner of this post.
