FOREWORD The Central Institute of Indian

Language~

was set up on the

17th July, 1969 with a view to assi'8ting and co-ordinating the develop· ment of Indian languages.

Th~

rnstitut~

was charged with the

responsibility of serving as a nucleus l0 bring togett er all lhe research and literary output from the various lirl'gnistic streams to a common head and narrowing the gap 1:--etween basic research and developmental research in the fields of languages and linguistics in India. The Institute and irs five Regional Language Centres are thus engaged in research and teaching, which lead to the publication of a wide ranging variety of materials.

Preparation of materials designed

for teaching/learning at different levels and suited to specific needs is one of the major areas of interest of the Institute.

Basic research

relating to the acquisition of language and study of language in its manifold psycho-social relations constilute another broad range of its interest.

The publications will include materials produced by the

members of the staff of the Central Instilute of lnJian Languages and its

Regional

Language

Centres

and

associated

~cholars

from

universities and institutions, both Indian and foreign. The Central Institute of Indian Languages has initiated an Intensive Course Series in major Indian languages to provide suitable and comprehensive material for learning and teaching the language concerned for Indians.

In a language teaching situation, the teacher

is expected to combine the roles of a psycho-linguist, socio-linguist, linguist, language pedagogue, a creator of materials, a literary critic and a testing and evaluation expert.

Most of his competences are

naturally reflected in the materials, which simultaneomly are graded from simple to complex, known to the unknown and contrived to the natural.

This is a very difficult task.

After research and experi-

mentation we have come out with more questions than answers at each stage of the material. For example, how basis i., basic? is grading? graded?

EDITOR'S NOTE Kannada, a modern language with antiquity dating back to at least 5th century A f), is spoken by over three and a half million people, m >&tly living io Karnataka.

Its hig hly cultivated literary

history is continuously marked by experimentation in form, content

and m odes of expression, ranging from Vachana literature conveying the

messa2e of dissent to pul'po:;sive

contemporary writings

of

Sh1vararna Karaoth, Srikrishna Alan aballi, D evanoor Mahadeva, U.R. Ananthamurthy, Chandrasekhara Kambara and others.

In

fiction,

drama, performing arts, fine arts and sci~nces, Karnataka the home of the Kannada language, excells many others. With a rich literary, grammatical and socio-cultural traditions, Kannada exhibits an exquisite blend of the old and

the new.

Acquisition and knowledge of

Kannada will b~ found, indeed, rewarding by other Indians.

The Intensive course series airns at imparting mainly a proficiency in the listening and ~peaking skills of tht language learnt. The learning materials are presented in the script of the target langu-

age through o ut; in the beginning several lessons ue presented in Devanagari as a prop.

Th.e books under this series do not provide

the lea rners with an introduction to the script of the ianguage. Howe ver, the traditional alphabetic chart of the concerned language is given at the beginning of the book.

The learners are expected to

master the script of the language before they actually use the lessonJ of the Intensive Course.

For thi~ they are advised to use Script

Books and Copy Books published by the Central Institute of Indian Languages in its CII L-K V S Mother tongue series. Language teaching, in some sense, is an artificial activity.

It

requires breaking the global language into, at times, even arbitrary units.

Th!! b0oks in this series are no exception to this inevitable

con~equence

o f the model followed.

This was, however, borne

10

mind all throu gh to keep the artificial element uoder control.

Each language learning manual in the Intensive Course senes covers the basic structures of that language used for certain identified

viii

topics of common interest. form of conversations.

Lessons are generally presented in the

These lessons are grouped under various

units. The variables for the choice of dialect throuRh which the materials are presented, methods for tpe administration of exercises and drills in the class, and other tips for both the teacher and the learner would be found in the introdaction to every book in the series. It should be emphasized here that the Intensive Course Se ries is an integral part of the scheme of language teaching of the Regional Language Centres of the Central Institute of Indian Languages. Books in the fntermediate Course Series and the Advanced Course Series are an extension of the books published under the Intensive Course Series. M.S. THIRUMALAI
