  • Use 'Nanu' (I) + [Name] + 'annu' (optional) + 'hesaru' (name) + 'iddu' (is/am).
  • For simple identity, say 'Nanu [Name]'.
  • To ask a name, use 'Nimma hesaru enu?' (What is your name?).
Nanu (I) + [Name] + hesaru (name) + iddu (is/am)

💬

The 'Sir/Madam' Habit

In Karnataka, it's very common to add 'Sir' or 'Madam' after Namaskara. Even if you're speaking Kannada, these English titles are widely used and very respectful.
🎯

The Silent 'U'

Words like hesaru and namaskaru end in a very short 'u' sound. In fast speech, it almost disappears. Try to say 'hesar' with just a tiny puff of air at the end.
⚠️

Don't Forget the Head Nod

A slight, respectful head nod or joining your palms (Anjali Mudra) while saying Namaskara adds a lot of cultural weight and sincerity to your introduction.
