WHILE YOU’RE HERE... SOME QUITE INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE Konkani LANGUAGE

Konkani has close to 7.5 million native speakers spread across the western coast of the country in the states of Goa, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala, and the Union territories of Daman & Diu and Dadra & Nagar Haveli. With Goa being a thriving commercial centre in the ancient times, a number of Turks and Arabs visited the place frequently. As a result, multiple Persian and Arabic words came into the Konkani language. Konkani is written in multiple scripts - Devanagari, Roman, Kannada, Malayalam and Perso-Arabic.
