Tamil vs Telugu
Â
Tamil and Telugu are Dravidian languages that are spoken in the southern states of India. Tamil is spoken in Tamil Nadu and Telugu in Andhra Pradesh. There are a number of differences between these two languages. The Indian Government declared Tamil a classical language in 2004. It is the only Dravidian language that has this classical status.
The Tamil language is considered to be the oldest of all Dravidian languages. It is known to have existed more than two thousand years ago. Sangam literature, which is considered to be earliest era of Tamil literature , is dated between 3 BC and 3 AD. The earliest Telugu inscription can be dated back to 575 AD and has been attributed to Renati Cholas. It was in the tenth century AD that Telugu literature began.
The influence of the Sanskrit language can be widely seen in the Telugu language whereas the Tamil language has not been much influenced by it. In grammar, the Tamil language has its own grammatical structure whereas the influence of Sanskrit is clearly evident in the Telugu language.
There are also significant differences in the scripts of the two Dravidian languages. Tamil has one special character aytam, 12 vowels and 18 consonants. In Telugu, there are 41 consonants, 16 vowels and three vowel modifiers. Almost all the Telugu words end in a vowel sound.
While a lot of Sanskrit words have been adopted in the Telugu language, the Tamil language has adopted words from Malay, Munda, Greek, Chinese, Urdu, Persian, Marathi and Arabic.Â

why tamil will adopt words from Malay, Munda, Greek, Chinese, Urdu, Persian, Marathi and Arabic being one of the richest and oldest languages of the world. this is really crazy

What do you mean by richest.
Oldest makes sense for Tamil. Because still it is old, not fit for 100% clear communication.
The basis purpose of language is good communication. Tamil miserably fails in that. Some simple examples are, if I write ‘Kanti’ in tamil and show it to any tamilian, they read it as ‘Gandhi’; ‘Bapu’ as ‘Babu’, the list is endless.
If I write something, the other person should exactly read what I meant without a change in pronounciation. then only it is a good medium of communication.
Tamil may (!?) be the Oldest, but still it is old (not really developed). Oldest alone can not make Tamil as great. What is the point is self-praising, if the language can not meet its basic purpose.

In Tamil also one can write ‘Kanti’ ,Bapu’ exactly as it is,but that is wrong according to tamil grammar,tats y we are writing like tat.

Tamil needs modification.I see many tamilians can not pronounce Telugu English and Hindi properly.May be it is script problem.As a South Indian I feel all South Indian languages should adopt Telugu script for better prounuciation and easy communication.

But speaking Telugu is sounds like bad words

Crap, Telugu itself has no scripture.
Telugu and kanada adopted to kadamba inscription.
Tamil, language defined vowels and consonents very properly.
Tamil literaly splits all sounds and denotes with a letter.
Tamil properly accumulates or divids those letter in order to produce self descriptive words. No other languages has this property
Tamil க – ka, ga, kha, gha ( root sound is same ). Tamil removed this unwanted sound replication letters
And reduces letters
Tamil says vowels as soul letters consonent as body letter and together
Complete form of body and soul letters. No other languages represent letters like this.
There are lot of grammatical rules beautifully defined in tamil. Other languages can not have.
Tamil language is so emotional language very expensive using tamil we can say anything tamil has rich set of words which no language has.
What is there in telugu. If we sanskrit words from telugu . It will collapse. Telugu mostly influenced by sanskrit.

Just to show our language well stop dominanting other People’s language. Did Tamil teach you all to disrespect other languages? Wow great. Furthermore I’m a Mixed Telugu and Tamil. But I found that Only Tamil people are talking rich and showing off their language but the other doesn’t. This sometimes make me to feel that Tamilians are actually seeking attention by saying theirs is the oldest language.. Now history all has been a bullshit. We don’t even know which one is true and which on is false. As long as the God itself came here to justify we ould never knowok.. So stop disrespecting other’s language and religion.

Tamils go to any length to prove their language is the oldest and document this false narrative in wikipedia and every where. For example Telugu script (Nagabu) on stone inscription was found in Bhatti prolu in AP which dates back to 400 BC same as Tamil. In 4 BC Megasthnese mentioned the Andhras having big military power.How could Andhras mange/work without a developed language? simply it is not possible Itareya Brahmanas (700BC) mentions of Andhras. Lack of evidence of Telugu inscriptions of before christ is not the evidence of absence.

Tamil is a well developed language.. its not only the oldest but also original.. Unlike Hindi which has its persian roots.. taken bits and pieces from Arabic, urdu and sanskrit.
Tamil has updated vocabulary in all the Fields – Physics chemistry and so on.. Even many other languages have borrowed words from tamil.. that is the richness of it.
Do a research, read the history books, search and the world libraries or whatever research you wanted to do.. Tamil is still the oldest and living language of India..and one of the rich and oldest languages in the world..
without knowing the facts don’t comment..on the page..
For computer: Tamil word is kanini
Hindi still using many english words..so it is not well developed.. i respect oriya for its classical past.. Sanskrit..for its noble richness..unlike Hindi..which doesn’t have any of this.. its complete nonsense to put down tamil.. without knowing the facts.

Every language is important in itself. Every language has its own soul….so instead of pointing each other..we should be proud that we are living in a diverse country with different cultures.
Respect every language whether it is Hindi,Tamil,Sanskrit,Telugu or any other.
If you don’t know anything about hindi plz don’t comment on that. Before commenting its better to know about that language….then you will come to know about the richness of language concerned.
lastly, Sorry if my views hurt you…coz i don’t mean that.
Hope you understand

Only the Telugu language is richest and sweetest language in all languages of INDIA. And as well as Hindi also very sweetest language in India.

Desha Bhashalandu Telugu Lessa‘One of thr foreigner.
Circa 1400-1500 AD, Niccolò de’ Conti, a renowned merchant and explorer travelled across the world towards south-east Asia. He then chanced upon Telugu people and immediately noticed the vowel-ending similarly in the language and then coined the term for Telugu as ‘Italian of the East’, because in the west – this property is possessed by Italian.

Really, in all comments you are correct 100%.
To prove particular language is oldest language, now the stupids are asking for evidence like books or material object text.
This is not correct, as we are a bharatians we dont depend on texts because it leads violence (because from the acient period we have nuclear weapons – evidence mahabharathmahabaratam – evidence scientists of americans and russians discovered vimana advanced weapon by air no need of artificial power uses natural, unfortunately this in afghan mountains they failed in removong from there as it causes damage while removing and even it as self destruction arrangements ~ this vimana according thier testing found to be used in mahabharat war / even the hitler in world war 2 time he sent a team to know the knowledge of bharatian technology in that remaining non destroyed temples by muslims due to this britishers damaged the parts of temple.
I know its relevant topic directly but….
Someone has commented tamil takes words of chinese, arab, etc…. . It may be right because tamillians for their ego they destroyed telugu history in madras presidencY time even imposed to learn tamil in andhra in that time due to this many are been in only illiterate. Tamillians need to show evidence of derivation so they used other rich languages.
Someone said ‘computer’ word in tamil is ‘ kanini’~ this is derived from other language roots not at all in tamil.
I think sanskrit is ARTIFICIALLY developed language. Because we have so many languages……so people argued to use their languages. For this our brilliants like aryabhatta suggested to use a created easiest language. Even though tamillians didnt agreed due to their majority take a theory of leuresi/kumari continent.
Even tamillians agreed that they have a separate continent submerged in ocean
How can we call telugu is a dravidian language?? It as no roots from tamil – the oldest language lier. It is because of ego nature of tamillians they bullshit history to telugu.
If telugu language is dravidian then how andhra people identified as aryans – evidence in nellore aryan civilisation is found by archaeologists in 2019 sept to nov even they posted pics in twitter.
So, from this telugu is not a dravidian language may be south central asian aryan language.
Tamil is not oldest language but they may be oldest liers.
Telugu is may or may not oldest language but not script 100%. I think original script is forgotten in daily activities importantance.
Due to leuresia/ Kumarikanda theory, – evidencec in mahabharat, armed forces are sent to war from this continent. Aryan/dravidian civilization mixed this leads to destruction of bharathian (mostly aryan) civilization due to tamillians egoist even they supported foreigners from south.
We have known only a little of our history due to only a good foreign touristers.
Helping is a big mistake, In dangerous situation without knowing causes.
My mahabharat leuresia theory may be false as per ramayan even it is false evidence are infinite if u read different authors.
As per veera brahmendra swamy real history will come out soon.
Note: srilanka is not ravana lanka it is ceylon.
Bridge shown in satellite picture is not ramayanbrige it is one of our bharathian wonder
Ravanalanka is artificial island by viswakarma ( sandhya devis father) order of brahma on requests of ravana.
TajMahal is tejomahal – mr modi should look at this. – only in this the little of bharat desh truth is stored. I wish temple is the school as per olden days, in school libraries exists.
Sorry, i have discussed non reletad topics.

Proper nouns are modified according to the language. It has nothing to do with the ability to communicate. Tamil has rich roots in its language to form newer words. One of the few Indian languages that lends itself to newer words. thol-distant, tholaivu-distance. thol=tele and we get a number of words telephone-tholaipEsi, television-tholaikkaatchi etc.. neer-water thaNeer-cold water, veNeer-hot water. neeriyal – hydrology etc…
Words are borrowed mostly if we cannot meaningfully or easily find tamil roots.

Clear communication between who – not between two who speak different languages. Clear communication between two who speak the same language.

Your example does not make sense. You are trying to write a foreign language word in Tamil. I can give a similar (incorrect) example to contradict your statement. There is a name புகழேந்தி in Tamil. I will challenge you to write it in English or any other language. It is frequently (and incorrectly) written as Pugalendhi or Pugazhendi. The first one does not pronounce it correctly but at least close but the second one is typically how Tamils write it in English (accepted norm) to accommodate the special Tamil character ழ. But it is typical for non Tamils to totally pronounce it incorrectly.
There are similar examples in Chinese, Polish, Czech names.
In the end the more corrupt a language is, the more it accommodates – classic example is English which borrows words from many many languages including Tamil – (Ex: Cash, Catamaran etc)

Simple communication, that makes clear sense. No much complications like other languages. It’s richest as it has its own values. It’s the language which people spoke when there was no technology and civilized people of today where in caves. For example, the word cashew nut came from Kaasukku ettu which means 8 nuts for 1 penny., catamaran from Kattumaram and so on. While other languages adopted words from Tamil, it dint copy from others. It dint loose it’s originilaity. If that’s how people under estimate it and think it’s not developed, we are even proud of being originals.

This problem will not arise when u talk in tamil.Native Tamil words don’t contain those bha and gha sounds they are the cause of sanskritization.how dare u tell Tamil is not fit for communication I highly doubt u converse in Tamil. I converse in Tamil daily and face no difficulties u say.
I guess the point is made clear.native tamil words doesn’t contain sounds such as bha fa gha etc… So it is not necessary to have separate letters for those.

Tamil is the least currupted dravidian language . Even without the harsh sounds as kha jha etc. it is immensely rich in literature and vocabulary . It is the least dependent on other languages and has enough tamil route words to make any number of new words . The same letter standing for different sounds is there in english also .

From above:. Tamil has 12 vowels and 18 consonants. In Telugu, there are 41 consonants, 16 vowels and three vowel modifiers. So Telugu caters to almost all sounds. Telugu and Tamil are two diamonds where as the former is a well polished and the later unpolished. That does not mean Telugu did not exist before it was transformed and refined.

Tamil is a classical language and the oldest living language. It is Tamil which has alphabetical scripture even at the time of Ramayana. Mahamuni Valmiki had composed and narrated Ramayana, he also highlights that while constructing Nala Sethu, on every stone the vanarasi carried and wrote ‘Jai SriRam’ before dumping into the sea.
The Vanaras were Tamilians and they wrote in Tamil script.
Lord Sriram learned about the writing script and took it to Kasi from where Devanagari scripture evolved.
