A reference grammar of spoken Tamil

Harold F. Schiffman (1999)

This guide explores the standard spoken variety of Tamil, which is very different from the literary variety.

Standard spoken language is used in interactions between people from different regions and social groups and is also the dialect used in films, plays and the media, from which many of the book's examples are taken.

Provides a comprehensive point of reference for all aspects of Tamil grammar and will be useful to learners with some previous background in the language.
