Halegannada is derived from two kannada words, hale and kannada. Hale means old or ancient. In kannada grammar there are sandhies. In which while pronouncing two word in combined form, the ka becomes ga (Ga-kar-agama sandhi). So Hale and Kannada becomes HeleGannada.
From the ninth to the fourteenth centuries CE, Kannada works were classified under Old Kannada. In this period Kannada showed a high level of maturity as a language of original literature.
