Hi Ramya, good to know your interest towards kannada. thanks for dropping by. keep visiting for more :)
@hasiru5
That is nice to know. Well, it depends on the context. You are right for YES. But ‘Illa’ means ‘it is not present’
i learnt a few words of kannada. isn’t YES supposed to be ‘howdu’ and NO – ‘ illa’?
thanx alot!!
