单词 telugu
释义

Telugun.adj.

Brit. /ˈtɛlᵿɡuː/, U.S. /ˈtɛləˌɡu/
Forms: Also 1700s Telougou, 1800s Teloogoo, Telug; 1800s– Telegu.
Etymology: Telugu name of the language, and of a man of the race. Origin and derivation uncertain. The language is also called Tenugu , which Indian pundits treat as the original form, and explain as ‘mellifluous’, < tēne honey. The relationship of either of these names to Telinga n. and adj., formerly applied to the same language and people, is disputed. The Tamil name for the language is Vaḍugu or ‘the Northern’; thence the old Portuguese name Badages, and the old German Waruga.
A. n.
1. A Dravidian language spoken in the south-east of India, the official language of the state of Andhra Pradesh.
