Not illustrated. 1874 Excerpt: .independent adaptations of some foreign character, the first to a Sanskritic, the last to a Dravidian language. There are, however, resemblances between the two that point to a common Semitic origin; and these extend perhaps to two-thirds of the Vatteluttu letters; the others differ totally, yet several of these sounds ( l, l, f) exist in the other Dravidian languages, and distinct letters have been invented to express them. Thus the Tamil Malayalam 1 is expressed by g, the Canarese identical letter by CO. Again the Telugu-Canarese j is expressed by t5, whereas the same letter in Tamil is written v, so the Telugu-Canarese and Tamil l which are identical in sound are written quite differently. There is also a peculiarity in the popular Tamil way of naming the letters; in Sanskrit (excepting repha = r) names of letters are formed by adding-kara to the letter in question; in Tamil-na is affixed to short and-vena to long syllables, every consonant being named with some vowel following it5 . It is thus evident that the Vatteluttu differs greatly from the 1) Cfr. the grants to the Israelite and Christian communities in Travancore. -) See Appendix A. S) Do. ) The Telugn and Canareso Grammars explain the respective phonetic systems by a steady reference to that of Sanskrit; the Tamil Grammars do not refer to the Sanskrit at all in this way. I have already (p. 37) mentioned that the Grantha or Modern Tamil alphabet has copied the Vatteluttu in some respects. 5) The order I have given to the Vatteluttu corresponds with that of the Tamil alphabet, and is that of the Sanskritizing Grammarians. There is, however, a sntra in the Nannul which appears to me to indicate that this was not the case when the Grammarians began their labours. It runs: /Sirappinum inattinum s.<
