Room enquiry. Room irukka? Room there? Enna rate what rate? daily rate.

Amenities asking. Kaalai unavu breakfast included often say complimentary – kaalai unavu ulladakkama? Included?

Hotel dialogue – Guest & Reception:

Guest: Vanakkam, room irukka? Rendu naalaiku.
Reception: Irukku sir, AC venuma non-AC venuma?
Guest: AC rate enna? Kaalai unavu uladakkama?

Pronunciation Tips:

• Rate – re-ttu? Actually rate English but Tamil enna rettu?
• Ulladakkam – ul-la-dak-ka-maa included double l and kk.
• Munpadhivu – mun-pa-dhi-vu reservation.
• Kaanbiyungal – kaan-bi-yun-gal show respectful.
• Saavi – saa-vi key long aa.

Common Mistakes:

• Saying room irukkaa with double a? Irukka? okay, irukkaa? more polite? Actually irukka?
• Using check-in English okay everyone uses, but check-in eppom when?
• Confusing AC vs non-AC pronunciation: AC English A-C, non-AC non AC.
• Forgetting proof ID – id proof kudunga they ask Aadhar.

Cultural Note: Ooty Kodaikanal May season room double price, no room. In Chennai T Nagar lodges cheap 500 cash? But safety? Choose hotel with lift if luggage. Some hotels give free filter coffee morning. In temple towns, hotel may ask pure veg? Saivam hotel? Many lodge near temple not allow non-veg inside. Check-out 24hrs or 12 noon – ketukko.

Practice:

2. Rate: Rendu perukku AC rate enna?
3. Include: Breakfast included-a?
4. Show: Room konjam paarkkalaama?
5. Book: Idhu pidichirukku, book pannalaama?
