To all you tamizhans, something that I find sad is that many indian languages speakers write their respective languages in the latin scripts in spite of having such wonderful writing systems. However, Tamizh I mostly see it written in the tamil script and that simple act show how much respect and appreciation you have for your language. I don't mean any offense to other languages speakers but I just wish everyone would use their scripts. I've seen people say it's easier to just write in English and I get it but if, for one, Chinese people use their characters, Then I'm sure you can use your own abugida.
I am a Telugu speaker and I also love Tamil History and its kings like Cholas, Cheras, and Pallavas. My soul was made to be born as South Indian on this Earth🙏🙏🙏

As a tamilian, hats off to your research, unbiased presentation and excellent pronunciation of the alphabets !
Did you listen to her full? She is denying lots of fact... Tamil can stand alone without Sanskrit. And Tamil excavation let to uncovering inscriptions very similar to Indus script. It's even older than brahmi script they are mentioning.
She had put up a misinformation. Agastya is not a vedic sage. He is a Tamil sage
As an Italian currently studying Indian languages & cultures at university, I have to commend the accuracy of this video and the effort that must be behind it. Great content, Julie!
I agree
What's the name of that master? Or what career is it comprised in?
@@gastonmartinez6316 It's a Bachelor's degree and its name roughly translates to "Languages, cultures and societies of Asia and Mediterranean Africa" (I say it "roughly translates" because it's an Italian university and the courses are held in Italian). There are several Master's degrees which can be accessed after completing this Bachelor's degree.
It's not accurate. It is not Dravidian, it is thamizh. Dravidian was a lie. And Sanskrit came later after Aryan arrival in the Indus valley.

One of the best analysis ever seen about Tamil Language from a foreign person. Great job.
The characters of Thai,Malay and Indonesian looks very similar to Tamil, this is probably because their Languages were infact inspired by Tamil during the Chola Kingdoms influence in South East Asia
I'm a Tamil born, raised and living in Malaysia. It's true that there's a lot of similarities between Tamil and Malay language. Southeast Asian cuisine are also heavily influenced by South Indian cooking - many Malay and Indonesian cuisine uses curry leaves.
The Tamil Grantha scripts(Pallava scripts) brought by Tamil kings and traders, induced the development of many Southeast Asian scripts such as Khmer, Javanese, Kawi, Baybayin and Thai script.

Julie, I learned a few years ago a fascinating fact: there is a very old but still very visible connexion between Finno-Ugric and Tamil languages (!)...It's absolutely flooring! Look into this, it's crazy (even if the shared vocabulary and grammar isn't a big lot, yet it's incredible).
I have never seen anyone better than her explaining about Tamil. A well researched and articulated video. A good diction and presentation.

Beautiful comment! Tamil indeed feels young despite its incredible age!
Oldest language where ! Not even in India, the Harrappan language is even older in India.
@@ASMM1981EGY Harappan is an unknown language as of today. Nobody has successfully decoded it yet. Linguists like Kamil Zvelebil, Asko Parpola, Iravatham Mahadevan hypothesise that it could be Old Tamil. It’s interesting that you mentioned that “Tamil is not even old in India.”. By written accounts, Tamil is the oldest written language in India. I think you’re from Egypt? Did you know that there’s Tamil Brahmi found in your country? Look it up. It’s interesting that ancient Tamils have traded with ancient Egyptians, Romans, Greek, etc.

Love you from Tamilnadu....
The Sangam period was patronized by the Pandyas, who were one of the three great Kingdoms in Tamilnadu. Tholkaappiyam is the oldest book we have now, by which the grammar is based and due to the archaeological excavations it is also proved that tamil is 5000 years old.
True. Agasthiya is a brahminical conspiracy.
Tholkappiyam is the oldest literature in the world.l remember during school exams it was asked( which is the oldest literature in world).. This book was written by tholkappiyar likely around 8000 B. c
It's true
...the tolkappiyam book says it's an additional and corrections to the previous book, that book hasn't been found yet, so for now this is the oldest book
8,000 and 5,000 🤣🤣😃🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 delusional ignorants archeologically and linguistically it dates back to 200 BC
Marathi people (90 million of us) have deep roots with the Dravidian culture so much so that we have two alphabets that we speak that we borrowed from Tamil.
We also follow the Tamil/South Indian Hindu Calendar.

Excellent job on covering the Tamil language! Thank you! 🙏🏻 You've put a lot of time in researching Tamil which is phenomenal. I appreciate your hard work! Just sharing my thoughts on few of the things covered in this video:
1. Agathiyar (also spelt Akathiyar) & Agastya - There are two versions of the origins of this legendary person: Tamil version and Vedic version. Tamil version says that he's an ethnic Tamil sage moved from ancient Tamilakam (modern Tamil Nadu and Kerala) to the North to spread Hinduism. Vedic version says he's an Aryan sage who's the author of several hymns of the Rig veda. It is possible that Agathiyar and Agastya were two unrelated persons later merged together. The Tamil name, Agathiyar, comes from the Tamil root word 'akam' which means many things like 'mind', 'within', inside', 'self', 'house' etc... So the Tamil name Agathiyar means 'one who realises self' which is the core concept of all the Indian spiritual schools. Whereas the Sanskrit name, Agastya, comes from the Sanskrit root 'aj' which means 'brighten'. So the Sanskrit name, Agastya, means 'one who brightens'. As you can see, both Tamil and Sanskrit names have their own derivations. Thus, Agathiyar and Agastya must be 2 distinct persons later merged because their names and their roles in history are similar.
2. Tamil without Sanskrit vocabulary: Writing and speaking Tamil without Sanskrit is totally possible. There are Tamil equivalent words for every Sanskrit words used today. In fact, Tamil has the least Sanskrit influence of all the languages in India. Anyone who studied Tamil in schools and knows decent Sanskrit can write pure Tamil effortlessly. I am one of those people. I know decent amount of basic Sanskrit and I can easily identify Sanskrit words used in Tamil language today. I simply substitute Sanskrit words with the Tamil equivalents. Why? Well, I personally find pure Tamil beautiful, elegant, and mystical. Nothing more nothing less. :)
3. Use of 'zh' for ழ்: I don't know the reason either. I guess, it's simply used to emphasise that 'ழ்' should not be pronounced like 'L'. 🤷🏻♂
This is fascinating. I was doing a Master's for Linguistics and I thought it was kind of useless but then again your video proves me wrong. I found your channel today, keep up the good work!
You are amazing! I have admired the Tamil language, the culture and skills of the Tamils. I believe the largest hoard of Roman gold coins is in the Tamil lands. The major rulers were the Cheras, Cholas and Pandyas and the Tamils produced fine textiles, jewellery, spices, tiles, sculpture which were in high demand even in Rome. The late A K Ramanujan of Chicago U wrote a marvelous book called "Poems of Love and War". The first Tamil grammar was the Tholkappiyam. Thiruvalluvar's Thirukkural is a marvelous collection of advice, morals, ethics. The Harappans (most likely Tamils, as you mentioned) had no Kings, no weapons of war. They traded as far as the Oxus (Amu Darya) river. The Tamils enrich humanity

Yeah first gammer in the world is tholkappiyam which is still alive. I wonder why she said aggasthiyam

I am SO GLAD that I found your channel. I find this sort of thing goosebump inducing and even emotionally affecting. Language is, after all, the crux of who we are. You can't really understand a people until you understand at least part of their language. I took French in my U.S. college; not a long course, certainly not an immersive one, but I found myself thinking differently and mixing French in with my English. And with the Spanish I'd taken earlier. In fact, Spanish had the same effect on me. I am too old now probably to learn a lot of different languages, but I am determined to know some Russian and my people's native language, Irish Gaelic. Thank you for this channel.

4:57 And! You've left a (three dots/small circles) letter in Tamil alphasyllabary script i.e. *ஃ* (pronounced as ≈ *Ahkh* ). It is neither a vowel(உயிர்/Uyir= Soul) nor a consonant(மெய்/Mey= Body). It is called as "Aytha Ezhuthu (ஆய்த எழுத்து)".
It is sometimes used for f sound and rarely h sound to avoid ஹ
@@venki3deditor no way. I'm native Tamil speaker. ஃ sound is no way related to F sound. ஃ itself sounds like (a sort of) ஹ. To be precise, ஃ is categorised by some scholars under "Voiceless Velar fricative /x/" which is equivalent to ख़ (not ख). But according to Tamil grammar it is neither a vowel nor a consonant. So, this letter ஃ could be categorised under "Voiceless Glottal fricative /h/" that is equivalent to Sanskrit's अः (but grammatically its usage entirely different between Tamil and Sanskrit).
@@santhoshrider7348 For writing, it is used.
@@venki3deditor yeah! But it's a convention like to represent /ʂ/ sound by writing "S and H" together. But /h/ pronunciation has nothing to do with /ʂ/ pronunciation.
The more correct and closer way to represent the F sound in Tamil is "ஃவ (Ah + Va)". Because "வ(/v/ or /ʋ/)" is labiodental and also "F" is labiodental. This also wrong because we're using two different letters having different pronunciations to represent or make a third letter and pronunciation. Just for convenience we can use that's all.
ஃவ (hva) ≈ Fa
ஃஜ (hja) ≈ Za

Pallava Tamil brahmi script
The indians traded with South East asians are actually Tamilians.
@శ్రీ ధర్మం and here comes the 🤡🤡🤡. Have you ever heard of cholas navy? How you guys will accept as you guys don't have a proper history.
Tamil script has been found on Keeladi excavated pots, which are nearly 3000 years old. It is not Brahmi script. It is Tamizhi. Script found on pots clearly suggests that common Tamils of that age know how to read & write. Also the fact lot of women poets contributing to Sangam era poems, clearly proves that Tamils were unique. North Indian Manu treats women less than sutras & are not allowed to become literate.
@శ్రీ ధర్మం there is lots of proofs. U without researching don't comment noob. Goltie
Looks like you missed the recent excavation. Porunai river excavation dates Tamil back to 3200 years. Potteries were found with Tamili inscription. Tamil is older than Sanscrit. Tamil is the only language which can be spoken without mixing any Sanskrit words. Tamil scholars, Tamil teachers, Tamil enthusiast can talk pure Tamil. Sanskrit scholars influenced Tamil by mixing Sanskrit words to create new language like they did to create malayalam, but Tamil people did not leave their mother tongue and continued to speak Tamil with some Sanskrit words as the Sanskrit scholars are highly influential in the education system and injected Sanskrit words.

Great Video! But actually, you can speak and write Tamil without the influence of Sanskrit. Yes we have and use many Sanskrit loan words in Tamil since then, but we do have our own Tamil words for the Sanskrit loan words we are using today. Some of the examples:
King : Rajan/Raja (Sanskrit loan word in Tamil today) - Raja (Sanskrit) - Mannar (Original Tamil word)
Sun : Sooriyan (Sanskrit loan word in Tamil today) - Surya (Sanskrit) - Aadhavan (Original Tamil word)
Moon : Chandhiran(Sanskrit loan word in Tamil today) - Chandra (Sanskrit) - Vennila/Nila (Original Tamil word)
Sky: Aagayam(Sanskrit loan word in Tamil today) - Akasha (Sanskrit) - Vaanam (Original Tamil word)
Night: Rathiri (Sanskrit loan word in Tamil today) - Ratri (Sanskrit) - Iravu (Original Tamil word)
God: Deivam (Sanskrit loan word in Tamil today) - Deva (Sanskrit) - Kadavul/Iraivan (Original Tamil word)
For Sun = Nyayiru, moon = thingal as we use in weeks.

Thank you for this in depth video on the oldest classical language. Tamil Thevarams written during 6-8th century are true treasures! Beautiful compositions overflowing with love and devotion describing the rich landscape and animals. The tunes are built into the tamil words itself. Poetry and language blend together seamlessly. The literary work that is currently recovered is just a fraction of what was there and it is heart warming to see the renewed enthusiasm to rediscover what was once lost! The same Tamil being used today as was in the Sangam Times 6th Century. The continuity and viability of the language to serve so well even in 2022!

I've always wondered about these as oddities existing in countries that have a rich, fairly ancient and well-established language of their own (Spain, France and the UK), and your videos made it so easy to understand the backgrounds. 🙏🏼
Wonderful video. Thank you
Wow, Finally we got Tamizh. Greetings from Tamil Nadu, India 🇮🇳. வணக்கம், மிக்க நன்றி. Thank you Julie for doing this. Keep doing on other languages also. And one more thing, the relation between Tamizh and Sanskrit is appreciable so that the Tamizh was Sanskritized by Brahmins and poets for enriching the literature for their purpose. Before that many literatures were written in Pure Tamizh too. After this it leads to loss of Tamizh words which have equivalent to Sanskrit one and later adopted it as a day to day conversion. Due to 'Tamil only movement' those Sanskrit words were removed from Tamizh but not to a great extent as you told at last minutes in this video. In other Dravidian languages like Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada & Tulu, Sanskrit influence was more. But anyway these dravidian languages represent the unique culture of India and we are so proud of that.
I wanna learn Tamizh please help me 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@bhashashikkhakendro Hi Brother, You can Tamizh by searching 'Tamizh learning for Beginners' in CZcams. There is only limited source for Tamil Tutorial. You can basic sentences like greetings, numbers, question sentences, vocabulary and other basics.
@@vasanthakumar526 Ok ,
In my opinion the Tamizh language should be widely taught like foreign languages.
@@bhashashikkhakendro Yes Brother, due to language diversity of India. We have to give importance to other religional languages too. Your username indicate that your are a Bengali. Right?
@@vasanthakumar526 Yes bro I am a Bengali .
Excellant video except for a minor correction but profound. Lord Shiva taught tamil through Agasthiyar to tamils to 'pottri katti kakka'. Rough translation to be proud, hail, embrace and protect the language. Lord Muruga gave wisdom to the tamils through Thamizh Vedam.
Well researched. Amazing work 🎉
Indepth analysis as much as possible and great presentation. Appreciate your efforts
Interesting detail on Dravida being actually Tamil in Samskrit.
And about voting a language on a next video:
*Phrygian* if extinct languages count.
@@perambu3441 taking note. Thanks.
Tamil is a beautiful language. It's glory is radiated across the world. It is an ancient language known for literature, Grammar, good letters, vocabulary, great culture, temples, custom, siddha herbal medicine, hospitality, friendly environment, respect for elders, good equality for both men and women, traditional festivals, great cuisine for all food lovers, great tourism, great spiritual siddhas from Tiruvannamalai and many places. God has directly showered the blessings to have a wonderful culture with a sense of great unity. Always Lord shiva will radiate positive vibes and burn any sort of negative energy. He is a great saviour for the entire Universe. Lord shiva himself contributed for the ancient Tamil. Therefore it is ever lasting glory for all. I hope many people like the ancient existing language. We South Indias ate generous and we also respect all languages of the world to have a peace and harmony. Olga Makal nalamayai Vazhalgha. I was born and brought up in bangalore however I speak Tamil at home. Many bangalore people speak good Tamil . We respect kannada as state language and we also honor Tamil. There are Tamil Mandrams in bangalore.

Tamizh it's pride of the nation

Wow Julie, you just nailed those pronunciations. Even North indians don't pronouns these sounds properly. As a foreigner you pronounced ழ perfectly. Kudos to you!
Mother of all languages #TAMIL❤️🔥🔥
As a soceity, we are boasting such hyper claims. The origins of these claims were colonial times when we started to discover the ancient texts. At the time the colonial attitude was the whole India was uncivilised and it has no culture, literature, philosphy,.. Through out entire India there was a movement of discovering the cultural pride. It is nature to see such hyperbolic strong unscientific claims/opinions. It might be needed for that moment.
But now we need to come out of it and need to do more constructive works. As a soceity we are not doing justice for the heritage we have. Modern literature movement havn't get its deserved attention. Book selling statistics and readership is very shameful when compared to equivalent Languages in terms of speakers. The scholars in classic literature is in decline. Great masters have emerged in modern tamil literature like pudhumaipithan, ki.Raa, asokamithran and more. But the recognition, readership for theirs well deserved works is very very pathetic.
In this century shouting such slogans means that we are with inferiority complex. We are exagerrating because we are lacking knowledge. We are lacking confidence in our cuture, language, etc.,,
No,
Mother of all languages is the proto human language,found in Africa.
It's not mother of all languages.
Tamil belong to Islamic. Tamil peoples was Muslims in earlier.

The last part was actually not about purifying Tamil. It's a protest against language imposition.
@@descendedofrigvedicclans2216 English is not imposed on anyone. It is by far the most influential language in the world.
@@niranjan286 tell this to a chinese or Japanese or a German
@@Shivam-br5bk For your information, the Chinese, Germans and Japanese learn English as a second or third language.
@@niranjan286 madrasi. You have a Sanskrit name. Just like every other historical Tamil figure 😂😂
@@MrRahul6464 Having a name is easy, learning a language is not. Tamils have all kind of names including Arabic and English names. That doesn't mean that people should know Arabic.
Beautiful- thanks, thanks a lot Julie
Thank you for this video Sister ❤️
Sadly the current Indian government doesn’t share your view of unity within plurality/ diversity, great job and enjoy your channel.
It shares plurality but only with hindus not others.
Hindutva for hindus doesn't matter the language
True. We should vote for the family that brought emergency and poverty.
