Learn Telugu: Shikho

Telugu Shikho teaches you to speak Telugu the way you actually learn a language: by listening and repeating, not by memorizing a script.

Every lesson is built around real spoken Telugu — greetings, family words, numbers, food, shopping, getting around, and the festivals that make Telugu culture what it is (Ugadi, Sankranti, Bathukamma, and more).

HOW IT WORKS
- Listen to each word or phrase, spoken clearly at normal and slow speed
- See it spelled out the easy way (English letters), so you're never stuck trying to read Telugu script first
- Practice with quick listening and speaking exercises after every lesson
- Record yourself and compare your pronunciation with the model voice
- Short conversations show you how phrases are actually used together, not just as a word list

WHY SPEAKING FIRST
Most people who want to learn Telugu want to talk to family, order food, or get through a trip — not pass a reading test. Telugu Shikho skips the script entirely at first, so you can start having real conversations faster.

FEATURES
- 25 short lessons across four levels: First Conversations, Family, Daily Life, and Festivals & Fun
- Every phrase includes native audio, at normal and slow speed
- Speaking practice with your own microphone
- Streaks and progress tracking to keep you going
- Works offline once installed
- No ads, no account required, no data collected

Telugu Shikho is part of a small family of spoken-language apps built the same way — Gujarati Shikho and Punjabi Sikho are also available if you're learning more than one Indian language.
