a dravidian language that is on the verge of dying thanks to telugu people who rather prefer to use either English or Telgish in daily life. Try to use Telugu and you will meet uncomfortable stares that judge you as lame, uncool and low-class.
reasons for its predicament :
1)if you consume old movies/movies, you can see educated and affluent class of people acting all uppity by unnecessarily using English words to indirectly communicate their supposed "high-class" status. that was actual reality in 20th century. even others began to use Telgish to show those arrogant retards that it isn't a big deal to corrupt the beauty of Telugu. thus it became norm to rape Telugu to death.
2)unnecessary sanskritization. the modern standard telugu has tons of Sanskrit loan words, even if many Telugu words having the same meaning are available. telugu scholars love importing Sanskrit words for higher concepts(and for even mundane things) instead of creating words in Telugu even though many famous Telugu poets throughout history showed the potential of Telugu at describing higher concepts and coining new words. thus the technical/scientific terms are all either loan words from Sanskrit or made from Sanskrit root words. many scholars justify this by saying they are enriching telugu.
3) lack of language based identity unlike other southern Indian states. weirdly enough, telugu diasporas in other countries like USA, Canada show genuine interest towards telugu language and culture these days.

Get the telugu mug.Telugu is a Dravidian language (South-Central Dravidian languages) primarily spoken in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, where it is the official language. Including non-native speakers it is the most spoken Dravidian language, the third most spoken language in India after Hindi and Bengali, and one of the twenty-two official languages of the Republic of India. It is spoken among a diaspora population in the USA, Malaysia, Mauritius, South Africa, Ireland, Fiji, Réunion, Trinidad and the UK among other countries around the world. Extant works in Carnatic music, particularly the compositions of the present era (post 15th century), were written mostly in the then, highly-sanskritized Telugu.

Get the telugu mug.The adjective given to a group of three friendly individuals in a non-academic high school class. The tulumptuous trio features two good friends and a third "casual" friend who is rarely associated with outside of the classroom.
The trio is ideal for laughing at the pointlessness of the class. There is also the little known "fourth man" who sits slightly in front of the tulumptuous trio and adds occasional funny comments at the discretion of the tulumptuous trio.

Good Friend #1: Yo man, this health class sucks. No one even uses female condoms.
Good Friend #2: Yeah. Glad we have a tulumptuous trio going on. Yo, would you bang the teacher?
"Friend" #3: Dude, I would not.
Fourth Man: (smiles)
