Errores comunes

Missing the subscript means the sound isn't doubled. Without the 'Ottu', the meaning changes.

Wrong: అమ (Ama)
Correcto: అమ్మ (Amma)

Ignoring the stress makes the word sound flat. You must hold the 'k' sound for a moment.

Wrong: అక్క (pronounced as single 'k')
Correcto: అక్క (pronounced with stress)

The irregular 'ra' subscript is often confused with standard forms. Remember the hook shape.

Wrong: కర్ర (writing 'ra' incorrectly)
Correcto: కర్ర
