The reissue of Vyāvahārika Bhāṣā Vyākaraṇam, authored by Dr. Vadlamudi Gopala Krishnayya in 1958, represents a significant reclamation of Telugu linguistic scholarship. The work, comprising 1,474 grammatical rules for spoken dialects, had disappeared from circulation after 1990 due to mass media dominance.

This article challenges a troubling contemporary claim that no formal grammar of colloquial Telugu ever existed. The author draws historical parallels, noting that canonical texts like Andhra Śabda Chintāmaṇi also faced centuries of obscurity. Dr. Krishnayya's groundbreaking achievement fulfilled a pledge made by earlier scholars nearly 250 years prior.

Notably, Dr. Krishnayya introduced over twenty new letters in 1956 to represent sounds existing in speech but absent from written Telugu. The reissued grammar, prepared by senior journalist Vadlamudi Rajaphani, serves both as academic reference and moral corrective against intellectual distortion in contemporary linguistic discourse.
