Konkani is spoken by two sets of people with slight difference in the language between the two, down in Karnataka. One is goud saraswat bahmins & others being Catholics. Which konkani do you speak?

I am a GSB.

Not just GSBs and Catholics, there are few OBCs in Karwar, Udupi and Mangalore districts who also speak Konkani however, their dialect is different from GSB and Catholic Konkani. Even Karwar and Udupi/Mangalore GSB Konkani dialect are different.

There are also Nawayathi Muslims in 3 districts mentioned above, who speak a kind of Konkani.
