About this tool
A new Kannada word every day with script, transliteration, meaning and an example sentence, plus a revision streak.
Kannada Word of the Day shows one Kannada word for each calendar date, with the ಕನ್ನಡ script form, an ISO 15919 transliteration, the meaning and a complete example sentence translated into English. The rotation is date-driven rather than random, so every learner opening the same date sees the same word — useful for a class, a study group or a family learning together. A local revision streak tracks how many consecutive days you have actually reviewed.

The card is derived from the date itself, so two people on the same day always match.
Each entry shows the Kannada spelling and a Roman reading, so you can learn the alphabet gradually.
Every word ships with a natural example sentence rather than an isolated gloss.
The deck holds 40 high-frequency words and repeats on a 40-day cycle, so a full pass takes about six weeks. You can also browse or search the whole deck at any time instead of waiting for a word to come round.
The card is keyed to the calendar date you choose, and the tool defaults to your device's local date. Because the rotation is anchored to a fixed UTC day, anyone selecting the same date sees the same word regardless of where they are.
Transliterations follow the ISO 15919 conventions used in most Kannada textbooks: long vowels are marked ā ī ū ē ō, and retroflex and other Indic consonants take dots, as in ṭ, ḍ, ṇ, ḷ, ṣ and ś.
No. The days you mark as revised are kept in your own browser's local storage and never leave the device, so clearing site data or switching browsers resets the streak.
