Malayalam

Malayalam is the language of Kerala, the southernmost state in India. Over 35 million people speak this language. Malayalam, one of the Dravidian languages, has its own alphabet and grammar. It originally developed from Tamil and uses many Tamil words. It has also adapted many words from Sanskrit, other Indian languages, and English.

Malayalam is extraordinarily rich in every genre of literature, and every year, numerous books and publications are produced in Malayalam. In Kerala alone, 170 daily papers, 235 weekly papers, and 560 monthly periodicals are published in Malayalam. In fact, the most circulated daily paper in India is written in Malayalam. This language is presently taught in many universities outside Kerala, including some in the United States.
