Telugu .
Telugu is a Dravidian language,
primarily spoken in the Indian state
of Andhra Pradesh, where it is the
official language.
It is the Dravidian language with the
largest number of speakers (including
non-native speakers), the second most
spoken language in India after Hindi,
and one of the 23 national languages of
the Republic of India. In addition, it
is also spoken among a diaspora
population in the USA, Malaysia,
Mauritius, South Africa, Fiji, and the
UK among other countries around the
world.
Telugu is one of the languages of
Carnatic Music, the Classical music of
South India.
Telugu is also popularly called the
Italian of the East, because spoken
Telugu sounds as though every word ends
in a vowel.
