Learn Kannada Numbers — Count from ೧ to ೧೦ and Beyond

Kannada Number Names Children Should Learn

Kannada has its own numeral script as well as its own spoken number words. Children benefit from learning both. Here are the first ten:

• 1 — ಒಂದು (Ondu)
• 2 — ಎರಡು (Eradu)
• 3 — ಮೂರು (Mūru)
• 4 — ನಾಲ್ಕು (Nālku)
• 5 — ಐದು (Aidu)
• 6 — ಆರು (Āru)
• 7 — ಏಳು (Ēlu)
• 8 — ಎಂಟು (Entu)
• 9 — ಒಂಬತ್ತು (Ombattu)
• 10 — ಹತ್ತು (Hattu)

Our app presents each number with its Kannada numeral, the written word, an illustration that shows the quantity, and clear audio pronunciation. Children can listen to the numbers in sequence to develop counting fluency.

Why Learn Kannada Numbers with an App?

Number words in Kannada differ significantly from English — there are no cognates to lean on. An audio-first app approach is especially effective here, because children can hear the pattern of the number words (the rhythm of Ondu, Eradu, Mūru) and internalize them through repetition rather than memorization.
