Coorgi
To: efloraofindia <indiantreepix@googlegroups.com>
Dear Kannada-knowing friends,
Please help in providing valid words for names of *Justicia betonica* in
Kannada and Coorgi.
An extract from a post in Kodaga Community web site:
"Madd Toppu" (Justicia betonica) as it is called in Kodava parlance ("Aati
Soppu" in Kannada).
... http://www.kodagucommunity.com/2008/08/today-is-kakkada-padhinutt.html
Thus,
... would *madd* be:
1) ಮಡ್ಡ
2) ಮದ್ದ
3) yet different than the above
... would *toppu* be:
1) ಟೊಪ್ಪು
2) ತೊಪ್ಪು
3) yet different than the above
... would *aati* be:
1) ಆಟಿ
2) ಆತಿ
3) yet different than the above
Regards.
Dinesh
