abhinandanelu
Did you know?
- Because Tulu has its own unique script in historical contexts, though it currently uses the Kannada script, the word ಅಭಿನಂದನೆಲು would have looked entirely different in ancient Tulu manuscripts.
- If you say ಅಭಿನಂದನೆಲು to an elder, the social expectation is that they might respond with a blessing rather than a simple 'thank you'.
- While you might use ಅಭಿನಂದನೆಲು for a formal achievement, in casual settings among Tulu speakers, people often simply use a warm clap or a vigorous pat on the shoulder to convey the same sentiment.
