Of the approximately lakh (100,000) #inscriptions found in India, 85,000 are in tamiZ & kannaDa. Let that sink in These were written in the respective #tamiz and #kannaDa scripts (as they were through the 2000 year history). Not in #Nagari variants. 1/6

Devanāgarī's supra-local status has historical roots in the early forms of Nāgarī and its prototypes were often used outside of north India, e.g. a script known as Nandī-nāgarī and other similar northern-style scripts were sporadically used in addition to the local scripts...1/4

This is incorrect. The mnemonic part is folk etymology. The names given are only applicable to Tamil Nadu. Origins go back to the Natyashastra of Bharata muni. Its history in Karnataka is also ancient & hoary. Also, the dancers shown in the pic are dancing Odissi

Stubbornness of Hindi-speakers to not learn kannaDa in KarNATaka and demanding that the natives speak in Hindi is purely attitudinal. It has nothing to do with nationalism or religion. Everything to do with arrogance & entitlement

I know many migrants from Karnataka & Tamil Nadu who live in Mumbai. None of them speaks Marathi. They all speak Hindi with domestic helpers, shopkeepers, cab/auto drivers, dabbawallas. Opposition to Hindi in Karnataka & TN is purely political. Kerala has no issues with Hindi.

By applying same logic as Tamil, Sanskrit has 544 letters. Add the half nasal and it becomes 589 letters! For classical kannaDa we get 648 letters (18 vowels + 36 consonants multiplied by 18). For sankēti- we have 850! 👑 (25 vowels + 34consonants multiplied by 25)🤴

Why should a vegetarian be ok with touching non-veg? Why should anyone be forced to eat with people eating non-veg food if they don’t want to? Guilt-tripping won’t work every time. Some people are obsessed with Brahmins & their habits. And everything isn’t discrimination 🙄

@a_srinidhi @arish_vr I just noticed a certain brahmin finickiness when it comes to eating - I shall not touch non veg, I shall not dine with non veg people etc. These are milder versions of untouchability. That's my take. In reality, I'm a sole vegetarian in a non veg family.

This “barking” Is so fake! No, humans that develop rabies do NOT bark like dogs. That is so not a symptom. Remember- any mammal can carry & transmit the rabies virus. If a human with rabies bites an uninfected dog & the dog gets rabies, will the dog start talking like a human 🤦🏻‍♂️

42% not 57. By QT logic, Hindians should learn every other Indian lang KannaDa (there’s an a at the end) is spoken by overwhelming majority in KarNATaka. So by QT logic, immigrants should learn kannaDa All Hindus should practise Christianity as world majority is christian

I don’t understand this obsession to develop a common script for all Indian languages. It may serve some advantages- but destroys a whole load of history and culture with the current scripts. Plus, I note that this proposed common script is heavily Devanagari and Tamil centric

The name on the top in kannaDa script would have served as Sanskrit too. dEvanAgari isn’t the “native” script of Sanskrit. For centuries it has been written in KannaDa script (and many others) too

A citizen of a “first world” “democratic” country can question a presidential candidate about his religion & claim that the country was built on “Christian” values. That isn’t bigotry🙄 An Indian is not allowed to state the fact that India is built on Hindu values. 😀
