  • A Comparative Grammar of the Dravidian Languages
    World Classical Tamil Conference- June 2010 51 A COMPARATIVE GRAMMAR OF THE DRAVIDIAN LANGUAGES Rt. Rev. R.Caldwell * Rev. Caldwell's Comparative Grammar is based on four decades of his deep study and research on the Dravidian languages. He observes that Tamil language contains a common repository of Dravidian forms and roots. His prefatory note to his voluminous work is reproduced here. Preface to the Second Edition It is now nearly nineteen years since the first edition of this book was published, and a second edition ought to have appeared long ere this. The first edition was, soon exhausted, and the desirableness of bringing out a second edition was often suggested to me. But as the book was a first attempt in a new field of research and necessarily very imperfect, I could not bring myself to allow a second edition to appear without a thorough revision. It was evident, however, that the preparation of a thoroughly revised edition, with the addition of new matter wherever it seemed to be necessary, would entail upon me more labour than I was likely for a long time to be able to undertake. .The duties devolving upon me in India left me very little leisure for extraneous work, and the exhaustion arising from long residence in a tropical climate left me very little surplus strength. For eleven years, in addition to my other duties, I took part in the Revision of the Tamil Bible, and after that great work had come to. an end, it fell to my lot to take part for one year more in the Revision of the Tamil Book of, * Source: A Comparative Grammar of the Dravidian or South-Indian Family of Languages , Rt.Rev.

  • Comparison Between the Grammar of Greek Sapphic and Tamil Seppal Songs
    Athens Journal of Philology - Volume 7, Issue 3, September 2020 – Pages 147-170 Comparison between the Grammar of Greek Sapphic and Tamil Seppal Songs By D Pugazhendhi* Sapphic stanza is a peculiar poetic form in Greek literary world. It gives more important to the structure. This form was tried in many languages; but this form was grammatically explained only at the later period. Resemblance with this format is also seen in Tamil literary world, and the grammar book also belongs to the same period as that of Sapphic stanza. So the grammar that is explained in this Tamil grammar book is compared with the grammar of Sapphic stanza. The comparison is made in different perspectives such as the letter count, light and heavy syllables, formats of the syllable, sequences between two syllables, syllable formation in a line, the length of each line and the lyric. It highlights that the Greek Sapphic stanza seems to resemble one type of seppal songs which are mentioned in the grammar book. Comparing the Greek literature with the grammar book of same era will lead to better understanding and clarify the concepts that were misunderstood and spread by the later critics. Keywords: comparison, grammar, Sapphic, seppal, structure. Introduction The Greek literature includes prose, poetry and dramas. In the Greek field of poetry comprises of various form of poems among which the Sappic stanza stands unique from others in its forms. This Sapphic stanza originated from the Greek poetess Sappho of Lesbos who lived sometime around 630 BC. It was written in vernacular form of Greek, the Lesbian-Aeolic dialect.

Pi Li^c;-^ PREFACE. )°l^h The present work is chiefly intended for the use of those who wish to acquire a knowledge of the grammar of colloquial Tamil within a comparatively short time, either Tor practical purposes or as the preliminary to a thorough study of the language. Particularly bearing in mind students who work without a teacher, I have devoted some pages wholly to the subject of pronunciation, and have given the transliteration of all the Tamil words occurring in the grammar, side by side with the native character. This will enable the beginner gradually to acquire the Tamil character as he proceeds with the study of the grammar itself, thereby avoiding a needless waste of time and trouble. The chapter on euphonic changes will specially appeal to those who ha\e a philological turn of mind ; for this gives the key to the solution of many difficulties that beset an ordinary student in the way of analysing Tamil words and sentences and of mastering their relationship to one another.

It is my privilege to register my sincere heartfelt thanks to everyone who has contributed directly and indirectly to the completion of this thesis. First and foremost in the list of generous souls deserving my gratitude is my supervisor, S. J. Hannahs. I am indebted to him for accepting me as his student and introducing me to the study of generative linguistics, especially Optimality Phonology. He has contributed immensely in completing this study. Without his enthusiasm, valuable guidance, constructive comments, moral support, motivation and immense patience, it would have been impossible for me to complete this study. I wish to convey my heartfelt gratitude to him. My sincere thanks are due also to the authorities of the University of Malaya for granting me a scholarship and study leave to conduct this research work successfully. I also owe a great deal of gratitude to my colleagues at my home institution, especially my foster father Professor Dr N Kanthasamy, Head of Department of Indian Studies, Associate Professor Dr S Kumaran, and Associate Professor Dr M Krishanan for their continuous encouragement and moral support which were shown in every possible way.

Computational Challenges with Tamil Complex Predicates. In Butt, Miriam, King, Tracy Holloway, & Toivo- nen, Ida (Eds.), Proceedings of the LFG’19 Conference, Australian National Uni- versity, 272–292. Stanford, CA: CSLI Publications. Abstract This paper presents work in the context of the development of a computational ParGram style grammar for Tamil. The grammar is implemented via the XLE grammar development platform and contains a Finite-State Morphological analyser implemented via Foma. This paper reports on challenges for the implementation found with respect to V-V complex predicates in terms of the interaction with phonology (Sandhi) and the lexicon. In particular, we focused on the interaction of causation and passivisation with complex predication. This paper provides further evidence from Tamil complex predicates for the use of the Restriction Operator and also addresses issues with respect to complex predication at the morphology-syntax interface. 1 Introduction This paper presents work in the context of the development of a computa- tional ParGram (Butt et al. 1999) style grammar for Tamil.1 The grammar is implemented via the XLE grammar development platform (Crouch et al. 2017) and contains a finite-state morphological (FSM) analyser implemented (Sarveswaran et al. 2019) via Foma (Hulden 2009).

  • Sundaravelu J 013011
    Sundaravelu, J. Opposition to unify Grantham and Tamil scripts 01/30/2011 Opposition to Unification of Grantham and Tamil Scripts in the Unicode Our requests: 1. To remove 7 Grantha Scripts ( ஜ, ஸ , ஷ , ஹ , ஷ , ) from Tamil Unicode Scripts. 2. To prevent the inclusion of 5 Tamil Scripts ( எ , ஒ, ழ, ற, ன) in the Grantha Scripts. 3. To prevent the inclusion of 26 Grantha Scripts in Tamil Unicode as “Extended Tamil ” as proposed by Sriramana Sarma. 4. To prevent the encoding the Grantha in Unicode, since it is not the medium of learning of the applicant and his clan (See Annexure 2) . If at all it is required for research it may be used from glyph or pdf format. 5. To stay and scrap: Proposal to encode the Grantham script in Unicode: L2/10-426 by Gov't of India 2010-10-22. 6. To remove the classification of Tamil Scripts into anuswara, visarga, virma based on Sanskrit which is against the Tholkaappiam - a treatise in Tamil Grammar. 7. We oppose the Sanskritisation of Tamil by attempting to include Sanskrit Phonems through Grantha Scripts in Tamil Unicode. 8. Unused spaces should not be allotted to Grantha scripts meant for Sanskrit that are racially, culturally, historically, linguistically and grammatically and diametrically opposite to our mother tongue Tamil. 9. It is a linguistically known fact that a systematic and planned Sanskritisation polluted Tamil, which resulted in the branching out of many dialects. Tamil became endangered language and a new language Malayalam was born recently. (12 th Century CE). 10. It is a historic fact that the sanskirtisation of Tamil resulted in “Manipravaalam” (polluted language).
