I'm learning both Kannada and Urdu for personal enrichment. I may eventually have professional use for these, but that is not my goal.
I am perhaps at an advanced beginner stage with Urdu: I have worked through a couple Hindi/Urdu textbooks. I know the basic grammatical structures of the language and have a vocabulary of around 2,000 words. I can read and write. I have very poor conversationa l abilities. Things don't yet come to me naturally, my listening skills aren't strong, and I need to keep expanding my vocabulary: The 2,000 words I know are often not the right words to say what I want to say!
I am at an early beginner stage with Kannada. I learned the language conversationa lly when I was in college 24 years ago. I was never a great Kannada-speak er, but I really loved the language. Unfortunately , I remember very little. I can write, and I have a vocabulary of only a couple hundred words. I can make some very basic sentences, but I have a lot of work ahead of me.
For Urdu, I am currently reading *Intermediate Hindi Reader* by Usha Jain, and *Readings in Urdu Literary Prose* by Gopi Chand Narang. I could use a language partner who would:
• have practice conversations with me on selected topics;
• help me understand the differences between words with similar meanings;
• help me understand passages in my readings that I have difficulty with.
To reach my goals with Urdu, I'll probably need a vocabulary four times the size of what I currently know. I'll gain this mostly for reading, but I could also use help expanding my vocabulary in targeted practical areas where I'll want to be able to speak extemporaneou sly.
For Kannada, I am working through *Conversation al Kannada* by ND Krishnamurthy and UP Upadhyaya. I could use a language partner who would:
• hav e very basic practice conversations with me on selected topics;
• help me make word lists to expand my vocabulary.

Hi,
I want to learn to speak in Kannada and understand spoken Kannada, since a lot of people I know speak Kannada. I have very rudimentary knowledge, absolutely beginner level, although I know a few basic words (like numbers 1 to 10, naanu, neenu, neevu, avanu, avaru, idu, adu, hesaru, ...). But i don't know verbs, and i find it difficult to understand, remember or form the various forms of verbs according to the tense (past, present, ..) or person (1st/2nd/3rd person), even for basic sentences.
I don't know whether i can learn effectively through email or chat, but i want to give it a shot, since i really want to be reasonably fluent in Kannada in 3 months. I can spend 1 hour a day on kannada lessons.
I am looking for a teacher who has a structured kannada course with lessons that can be sent through email or chat, and who can focus on verbal or spoken kannada, rather than the script. The lessons should preferably be in english, but use Hindi or Marathi is absolutely fine, if a certain term or concept cannot be explained in english.
Thanks and Regards,
Aam od
