Did you know?

  • If you use ಸೊಲ್ಮೆಲು in a very casual setting with close friends, it might actually sound overly poetic or dramatic, much like saying 'I offer my profoundest thanks' in English.
  • The phrase ಸೊಲ್ಮೆಲು is part of a linguistic group that preserves some of the oldest structural features of the Dravidian language family.
  • Because Tulu is primarily a spoken language without a widely used standardized script for daily texting, you will often see ಸೊಲ್ಮೆಲು written in the Kannada script.

Examples in context

  • ನಂಗೆ ಸಹಾಯ ಮಲ್ತಿನೆಗ್ ಸೊಲ್ಮೆಲು.
    namge sahaaya malthineg solmelu.
    Thanks for helping me.
  • ನಿಮಗ್ ಎಡ್ಡೆ ಮನಸ್ಸು, ಸೊಲ್ಮೆಲು.
    nimag edde manassu, solmelu.
    You have a good heart, thanks.
