It is a very old language with written records dating back to the 3rd century BCE. It evolved from the Proto-Dravidian language spoken over 4,000 years ago. The oldest Kannada inscription is the Halmedi inscription of 450 AD.

The Kannada script comes from the Kadamba script which evolved from Brahmi. Today it has 49 letters including 13 vowels and 36 consonants. Each letter represents a syllable rather than an individual sound.

Kannada is important in the culture and literature of Karnataka. The oldest work is “Kavirajamarga” which is a 9th-century book on poetry and grammar. Kannada Rajyotsava is a festival celebrating language and culture. Famous Kannada writers include Pampa, Ranna, Basavanna and Kuvempu.
