Description

About The Book: This book introduces "The Adventures of the Gooroo Paramartan," a tale written in the Tamil language. It includes a translation, a vocabulary, and an analysis of the first story. The Tamul language is spoken by a population of over five million in southern India. It is distinct, not having its origins in any existing language. It may have given rise to Teloogoo, Malayaiam, and Canarese languages or shared a common ancestor with them in some ancient, now-lost tongue. Unlike other southern Indian languages that incorporate Sanskrit, Tamul mainly uses Sanskrit for conveying moral and abstract ideas in everyday conversation. Understanding Tamul is crucial for individuals involved in Indian governmental affairs, serving as a bridge to comprehend other Hindoo languages.
