This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 52.91.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:26, 2 September 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

== History ==
Arebhashe has a history of approximately 500 years. According to linguistic scientists, it is very close to the [[Badaga language]] in the Dravidian language.<ref name="auto"/> There was a time when<ref>((cite book|last1=Gowda|first1=Puttur Anantharaja|title=In Pursuit of Our Roots|publisher=Tenkila Publications|year=2015|location=Bengaluru))</ref> [[Vokkaliga]] Gowda came from Iguru and started living in [[Dakshina Kannada]] and [[Kodagu district]], also [[Kasaragod District]] of [[Kerala State]]. They migrated to [[Coorg]] (Kodagu) from [[Mangalore]]-[[Udupi]] (Dakshina Kannada-Udupi) region, to settle among the Canarese [[Tulu language|Tulu]] speaking people.<ref>Valase, Sangarsha, Samanvaya By Purushothama Bilimale, ''Akruthi Publication Mangaluru, 2019 Pg: 216''</ref> And different communities in this region speak Arebhashe as a communication language.<ref>((Cite book |last=Girish |first=Kolyada |title=Hingara, Samputa 1,‌Sanchike 1 |publisher=Karnataka Arebhase Samskrithi Mathu Sahitya Academy |year=2015 |location=MADIKERI))</ref><ref>((cite journal |last1=Shailaja |first1=A.

== Geographic distribution ==
Arebhashe mainly concentrated in the state of Karnataka. There are more than five hundred thousand people speaking Arebhashe in Dakshina Kannada, Kodagu districts in Karnataka and Kasaragod in Kerala are the districts where Arebhashe speaking people live for centuries. They are now spread all over India, especially in metropolitan cities of Mumbai, Bengaluru, and other industrial and business centers. Arebhashigas are also in large numbers in countries like the United States of America, the United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, GCC countries and other places outside India.<ref>((cite web |title=Language in India |url=http://www.languageinindia.com/sep2005/kannadadictionary1.html |website=languageinindia.com |access-date=3 August 2021))</ref><ref>((Cite web|title=Arebhashe : Language with rich cultural history|url=https://newskarnataka.com/special/features/arebhashe-language-with-rich-cultural-history/|url-status=live|access-date=17 September 2021|website=News Karnataka|date=25 August 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210827014835/https://newskarnataka.com/special/features/arebhashe-language-with-rich-cultural-history/ |archive-date=27 August 2021 ))</ref>

== Grammar ==
The accepted word order of Arebhashe is [[Subject–object–verb|SOV]] (subject-object-verb), same as of Kannada languages.<ref name="Vyakarana">((cite book |last1=Gowda |first1=Prof.K.

There is no female gender distinction and no difference in the plural masculine, neuter gender.<ref>"Gender Distinction in Gowda Kannada." In Studies in Indian Linguistics, Krishnamurti H D, 1969, pp. 212-220</ref> Arebhashe is different from the Kannada language and has difficult to understand accent and words because of its special vowels and colloquialism.<ref name="mad"/><ref>((cite journal |first=Preethi V. |last=Kamat |title=Arebhashe: A Language with a rich cultural History |journal=Karnataka News |date=30 December 2021 |volume=7 |issue=1 |pages=23–25 |url=https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Arebhashe_A_Langauge_with_a_rich_cultural_History.pdf))</ref>

=== Phonology ===
The study of sounds in speech is known as [[phonology]]. The Arebhashe has 22 consonants and 13 vowels.((clarify|date=April 2024|reason=The vowel table shows 10, not 13)) There are no breathy letters in Arebhashe like Kannada language.<ref name="Vyakarana" />

==== Cases ====
Arebhashe has eight cases:<ref>Andronov, Mikhail Sergeevich. [[A Comparative Grammar of the Dravidian or South-Indian Family of Languages]]. Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz, 2003. Print.</ref>  Because the traditional study of Arebhashe grammar is based on [[Kannada grammar]] and in turn, Kannada grammar is based on [[Sanskrit]] grammar, a fifth case (since the dative case is the fourth case and the genitive case is the sixth in the traditional order of the cases) is sometimes considered: the [[ablative case]]	(ಅಪಾದಾನವಿಭಕ್ತಿ). This case is formed periphrastically by combining the [[genitive case]] of the noun supposedly in the ablative with the instrumental-case form of the noun 'ದೆಸೆ', meaning 'cause, vicinity, place, point'. Thus the Kannada [[ablative]] literally translates to 'from/by the cause/point of the {noun}'. However, this 'ablative' form is not commonly used colloquially, and exists only for propriety—it is not a true case, serving only to provide a parallel to the Sanskrit ablative.<ref name=":1">Ziegler, F. ''A Practical Key to the [[Kannada Language]]''. New Delhi: Asian Educational Services, 1984. Print.</ref> In its place, the third case, the instrumental-ablative case, is normally used.

The [[nominative]] is unmarked in Arebhashe. The Accusative-Genitive and Instrumental-Ablative are [[homophonous]] pairs in Arebhashe, while in Kannada, only the latter pair is met with. The Locative marker occurs only in inanimate nouns. in Arebhashe, but in Kannada, it occurs inanimate nouns also. However, inanimate nouns in Kannada, when necessary, the Locative sense is expressed by Postpositions. The distinction between the [[Accusative]] and [[Genitive]] is sometimes determined in -a ending [[Animate noun|inanimate]] nouns, by the kind of Inflexional increments with which they occur. e.g. mara-n-a kaɖi ಮರ-ನ-ಕಡಿ 'cut the tree' (Acc), mara-d-a gellɨ ಮರ-ದ-ಅ-ಗೆಲ್ಲ್ 'branch of the tree'. Such instances are rare in number and moreover, -n- is sometimes used in both functions. e.g. mara-n-a gellɨ mara-d-a gellɨ 'branch of the tree', mara-n-a kad̪i‌ ಮರ-ನ-ಅ-ಕಡಿ 'cut the tree'. This variation, perhaps be explained through old Kannada examples, where we come across a few words of the inanimate class taking the same ending as the animate class. e.g. mara-n-a ಮರ-ನ-ಅ 'of the tree', koɭan-a ಕೊಲನ-ಅ 'of the lake', polan-a ಪೊಲನ-ಅ 'of the field' etc. -n occurring before the case marker, perhaps indicates the Singular number, since, these are the concrete objects and therefore countable. Abstract nouns, or the objects which occur in a group or mass, are treated with -m ending. e.g. guɳam ಗುಣಂ 'good character' (Nom), and such nouns will have -d- as Inflexional increment before case markers other than the Dative. e.g. guna-d-a ಗುಣ-ದ-ಅ of the good character', ku:ʈa-d-a ಕೂಟ-ದ-ಅ 'of the gathering', ru:pa-d-a ರೂಪ-ದ-ಅ 'of the beauty. Though this irregularity in pattern was levelled in middle and modern Kannada Arebhashe, seems to have retained the old pattern in having the variation regarding the Inflexional Increments, referred to above.<ref name="Gowda Kannada"/>
