Basics of Malayalam Language

Malayalam is a Dravidian language spoken mainly in the state of Kerala, India, and among the Malayali communities worldwide. It is the official language of Kerala and the Lakshadweep Islands. Known for its distinct script with rounded characters, Malayalam has over 50 million speakers. It is closely related to Tamil but has evolved into a unique language with its own grammar, vocabulary, and rich literary tradition.

Malayalam literature has a long history, dating back to the 9th century, and includes poetry, prose, drama, and philosophical works. Prominent literary figures like Thunchaththu Ramanujan Ezhuthachan, the father of modern Malayalam literature, and Kumaran Asan, a celebrated poet, have contributed significantly to its heritage. Today, Malayalam cinema, also known as Mollywood, plays a crucial role in promoting the language through storytelling and art.

Learning Malayalam helps you connect with Kerala’s vibrant culture, known for its scenic beauty, festivals like Onam, and classical arts like Kathakali and Mohiniyattam. The language is used in daily communication, education, and media, making it an essential part of life in Kerala.
