Question

Write a short note on Malayalam and Assamese language.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Portuguese called both Malayalam and Tamil as the Malabar language . The first books to be printed in local languages were in the 1550s, which used Portuguese (Latin) characters. Thamburan Vanakkam, printed at 1558 used Tamil script. Ravikutty Pilla Por, written in the 17th century, is the shining example of Malayanma literature.

Assamese is the official language of Assam, and one of the 23 official languages recognised by the Republic of India. The Assam Secretariat functions in Assamese. The Assamese phonemic inventory consists of eight vowels, ten diphthongs, and twenty-three consonants (including two semivowels ).
