Malayalam Language Books in India
Malayalam is a language belonging to the South Dravidian subgroup of the Dravidian family of languages. Malayalam evolved -- either from a western dialect of Tamil or from the branch of Proto-Dravidian from which modern Tamil also evolved. An early extensive influx of Sanskrit words influenced the Malayalam script (derived from the Grantha script, itself derived from Brahmi): it has letters to represent all the Sanskrit sounds, besides the Dravidian sounds. The language also uses a script called Koleluttu (Rod script), which is derived from the Tamil writing system. The Tamil Grantha script is used as well.
