Language challenges
What makes Telugu translation challenging?
Telugu is easy to get almost right and hard to get fully right. These are the points our linguists manage on every project:
- Conjunct consonants and vowel signs that break in poorly supported fonts
- Long, agglutinative word forms that affect line breaks and UI space
- Literary and modern standard registers that suit different content
- Regional differences between Andhra Pradesh and Telangana usage
- English terms that Telugu readers use daily, often called Tenglish
- Indian number formats such as lakh and crore in financial content
We agree terminology and register with you up front and record them in a glossary and style guide.
Which language should you use for South Indian markets?
India’s southern states each have their own official language. Match the language to the state, and keep English for professional B2B readers.

| Tamil | Tamil Nadu and Puducherry | Tamil script | Content for Tamil Nadu, Sri Lanka, Singapore and Malaysia |
| Kannada | Karnataka | Kannada script | Content for Karnataka, including Bengaluru |
| Malayalam | Kerala and Lakshadweep | Malayalam script | Content for Kerala and the Malayali diaspora in the Gulf |
