What is the family system of Dravidian
Answers
Answer:
The Dravidian languages form a close-knit family. Most scholars agree on four groups: South (or South Dravidian I), South-Central (or South Dravidian II), Central, and North Dravidian, but there are different proposals regarding the relationship between these groups.As you travel farther and farther south in India, you will begin to hear people speak a totally different type of language from that spoken in the northern and central areas. The people of southern India primarily speak one of several languages that form a family of very ancient languages whose origins are shrouded in mystery. Collectively, these languages make up the Dravidian language family.
The Dravidian language family is not closely related to other languages spoken in other parts of the Indian subcontinent (which are called Indo-Aryan languages). In fact, Dravidian languages are quite unique, and no one knows for sure if they are related to any other language families on Earth! They show some similarities with Eastern European languages like Hungarian and with East Asian languages such as Mongolian, Korean, and Japanese, but it's not clear whether these languages families have a common origin or not.
It is believed that Dravidian languages were once spoken much more widely throughout India, but today, they are confined to the southern part of India, along with certain regions in Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Nepal. Still, over 200 million people speak one of the more than 70 Dravidian languages that are still in existence. Four of these languages are official state languages of India, and have a long literary history, as well.
