Why you should learn Tamil?

Tamil, is a Dravidian Language, which is predominantly spoken by the Tamil people of South India and North East Sri Lanka, and it is the national language of Sri Lanka as well. The Tamil language has been declared as a classical language by the government of India in 2004, and is one of the most culturally rich languages in existence. 

Tamil, is truly a beautiful language, and it is one of the oldest and longest lasting classical languages of the world. It has been described as "the only language of contemporary India which is recognizably continuous with a classical past" (Kamil Zvelebil, The Smile of Murugan Leiden 1973, p11-12). The Tamil language has the richest and most amazing pieces of literature and art which would be best to read originally rather than a translation. 

Along with this, Tamil is truly a unique language of India, since it is not derived from Sanskrit. Its literature arose and became popular in the South before Sanskrit, and thus is content wise much different from what we may have read in the other languages. The Tamil language has its own grammatical rules, its own tradition and above all, its own unique brand of literature and art.
