I want to learn Telugu greetings
a
నమస్కారం! (Namaskaram!) — the classic Telugu greeting. very respectful. casually you'd say 'ఏమిటి?' (Emiti?) — 'what's up?' or 'ఎలా ఉన్నారు?' (Ela unnaru?) — 'how are you?'
Namaskaram! Ela unnaru?
a
బాగున్నాను! (Baagunnanu!) — 'I'm fine!' 🎉 perfect. Telugu is actually quite phonetic once you get the script. want to learn to introduce yourself?
yes! how do I say my name is...
a
'నా పేరు...' (Naa peru...) — 'my name is...'. Telugu script looks complex but each character represents a syllable — very consistent once you learn the pattern 😊
