Introduction:
India is known for its diversity in different aspects. Language diversity is a very important aspect among them. Every state has its own language and every language has many dialects. Kannada, a Dravidian language spoken across the state of Karnataka and by some people in the bordering states is a beautiful language. If you are planning to move to Bangalore, the IT hub of India, learning Kannada can be of great help. With a plethora of online options, you can easily Kannada from the comfort of your home.

You can choose a course depending on whether you would like to learn Kannada only for communicative purposes or to be able to read and understand the beautiful culture of Karnataka. I am trying to list out a few online options both free and paid ones that can help in moving forward in your journey of learning Kannada.
