Nikhil-- Hi folks check out the additions that i have done to the page..

i wonder who thinks it is like that? Silly actually. I am sure it has not been written by an Old kannada speaking Bangalorean. He/She must be a recent outsider with little knowledge of it. Today, Kannada spoken by recent migrants to Bangalore may speak like that if they are still in the process of learning it. I for one dont speak like that inspite of studying in one of the most cosmopolitan environs and dont have to feel bad saying I speak Kannada at home.

Sometimes a lot of foreigners who know little about Bangalore are tempted to think so

[edit] Translating Bangalore Kannada

I wouldn't doubt it if the phrase at the end of the article ("Maam, avanige bombaataag ikkde") translates to an objectionable phrase that would otherwise be omitted in any other form, other than as an example of a little-known "dialect". Shabbs
