Kanarese & Kannada
pkonana@uabpa
that we can also find Kanarese in TOEFL/GMAT application forms.
Does anyone know why Kannada is called Kanarese?

Portugal -> Portugese
Kannada -> Kanara -> Kanarese?
(Is it due to the Portugese in Goa? )

Another legacy from the British I bet. SOuth Canara and North Canara
must also have benn british translations of Dakshina Kannada and
Uttara Kannada.

Uttara Kannada and Dakshina Kannada are called North Kanara and South Kanara
respectively. This makes me feel that Kanara is an Anglicized distortion of
Kannada.

Well Karanataka is a very fragmented and multifaceted lingual
state.
We can see the distint coastal culture in North and south Canara.
The bhraminist tradition and culture in the Mysore and adjoining
regions.
The Hyderabad Karnataka region with its' strong Marathi influence.
The Kodavas, in coorg who are a class apart.
The Mandya, Hassan regions dominated by the gowda culture.
Nilgiri with the Todas and Badagas, who have a strong tamil
influence.
Kasargod in a schizophrenic relation with Kerala.
Whatever like the song from Sharapanjara says:
Uttara druvadhim paschima druvakku kannada galiyu beesuthudhe.."

Multilingual, yes. Fragmented, no.

Yes.

Hmmm. I would probably call it the Yadava culture fostered by
the Maharajas of Mysore. The region it encompasses includes all of
old Mysore.

It should read "Telugu/Nizam influence". Marathi influence is felt in
the regions of Karnataka under the erstwhile Bombay presidency.

Coorg includes people who speak: Kannada, Coorgi (a better name?)
Tulu, and the various Iyengar dialects.

I am not aware of any Gowda culture. Perhaps, as I mentioned
earlier, "Yadava" culture is more appropriate. Culture of
Gowdas and Lingayats permeates all of Karnataka as they
are the dominant groups.

Nilgiri with its Todas and Badagas IS in
Tamil Nadu.

Kasargod IS in Kerala.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I guess Hyderbad-Karnataka regions are: Bellary, Gulbarga and Bidar
districts where we find a large % of telugu speaking. Belgaum, Bijapur, I
guess, belong to Bombay before state formation has a strong Marathi
influence.
