  • 1 paNatulAra This word seems to be error. Here a word to mean ‘woman’ is required. There are three words in Telugu - ‘polati’, ‘paDati’ ‘paDucu ’ meaning ‘woman’ or ‘damsel’. ‘paDatulAra ’ seems nearest to the word ‘paNatulAra ’.
  • 2 palikE – paluku : palikE - is appropriate.
  • 3 tyAgarAjunitOnu – tyAgarAja nutinitOnu : tyAgarAjunitOnu - seems to appropriate.
  • 4 pogaDE - pogaDu : pogaDE - is appropriate.
