what is the translation of “sage” into Telugu? Is it even available in India?
November 22, 2007 at 12:39 pm |
Hello Shruthi,
Are u referring abt “Sago”?It is called saggubiyyam in telugu.But u said “Sage” is it a typo error.Hope that helps.
Or is it “Sagu” that means a mixed vegetable curry as far as I know.

Hi,
In “Names Of Indian Spices it is written “Mustard Seeds” for “Avaalu”.But I think for “Mustard Seeds” it is “Miriyallu”.Please verify and up date.
October 18, 2009 at 4:07 am |
Mustard seeds are called Aavaalu
Miriyaalu is Telugu for Black Pepper
I hope this clarifies your doubt
