Tamil has been dated as far back as 500BC, and thought to be much older than that. It's incredible that the language is still frequently used today! During your travels to South India, Singapore, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Malaysia, and Mauritius you can speak Tamil to the locals.

First tip in learning Tamil - the pronunciation is actually 'Ta-mirdh' (not Ta-mil). After learning how to say 'Tamil", you already know a few words! Tamil means beauty, sweet, and natural.
