Shri. Tomazinho Cardozo, President of Tiatr Academy of Goa, guided the
participants. It is a fact that tiatr artistes did not have any formal
studies of Konkani in Roman script and hence they write in different
ways. Shri. Cardozo put before the participants basics of writing
correct Konkani in Roman script.
Correct formation of sentences, use of ‘C’, ‘Q’ and ‘Y’ alphabets were
discussed thoroughly. So also the use of consonants for writing correct
pronunciations of different words, were also discussed. The exercises in
writing different words and sentences were also conducted. The
participants actively interacted with the Resource person. The
participants expressed that the workshop was effective in learning
various aspects of writing Konkani in Roman script correctly.
Mr. Cardozo also assured that more workshops of this nature will be
organized so that not only tiatr artistes but all others who wish to
learn to read and write Konkani in Roman script correctly may
participate in the same.
The workshop ended at 1:45 pm.
