<http://indianfolklore.org/shop/product_info.php?cPath=23_30&products_id=67>
The Jenu Nudi Dictionary is a language resource for the Jenukuruba Community
that gives English approximations for Jenu-Nudi lexicons written in Kannada
script. They will enable children from the community to grasp English much
better and encourage them to use their 'home language' officially, without
fearing criticism from those outside the community.The dictionary has been
published with a vision to make the education system more sensitive to
linguistic differences between students from the marginalized communities and
others. It is compiled by Kikkeri Narayan, a professor retired from Central
Institute of Indian Languages (CIIL), Mysore and the founder of bilingual
transfer model of education for tribals. He has done pioneering work in
introducing post modern and post-structural literary criticism in kannada.
