Professional and Accurate Localization Solutions

Kannada, sometimes called Kannana or Kanarese, is a type of Dravidian language spoken in southwest India’s Karnataka (where it is the official language), as well as Goa, Maharashtra, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh, making Kannada translations essential to access the Indian market. The Kannada language is spoken by a total of 56.9 million people in India and was awarded the status of “classical language” by the Indian government in 2008.

Linguistic accuracy, in-depth cultural understanding, subject matter expertise, and localization best practices are all necessary components in ensuring success for any product or service entering the local market. Additionally, high-quality, consistent localization solutions for the Kannada language requires advanced AI translation technology combined with native, in-country linguists for a quick turnaround time.

Beyond these dialects, one’s social position can influence the type of Kannada spoken. There are three different types of Kannada that vary with social standing:

  • Brahmin
With so many different cultural nuances that vary across regions, the importance of understanding local communities is critical for ensuring success in whatever product or service is entering the market. Whether you are seeking Kannada to English translations or English to Kannada translations, it is essential to ensure the cultural appropriateness and local sophistication of every project entering or expanding from India’s market.
