.Grantham is 'Devanagariïsation'. Unnecessary, unless required to write in other Indian lang using Tamil script. https://t.co/vZG9sDk4t4

[Tiro Typeworks @TiroTypeworks]

@BrahmiComputing @lianghai Nothing to do with 'Devanagariïsation'. [Indeed, to avoid corrupting Tamil, Grantha is separately encoded.]

[Brahmi Computing @BrahmiComputing]

.@lianghai @TiroTypeworks Pls compare consonantal order of Tamil with the rest of Indic languages. Thnx.

[Brahmi Computing @BrahmiComputing]

.@lianghai @TiroTypeworks Do check "Shifting Paradigms of Nationalism, Ethnicity and Lang. in Tamil Nadu by Dr. N. Rajendran", ICHCR.

[Brahmi Computing @BrahmiComputing]

.@TiroTypeworks @lianghai It is not about alphabet or coding. It is about language. Strictly speaking, Grantham is not Tamil.

[Brahmi Computing @BrahmiComputing]

.Not sure, @lianghai - will check. But this has been brewing for some time - to convert the Tamil alphabet into a Devanagari'sh one.

[Brahmi Computing @BrahmiComputing]

.This Sanskritization of Tamil script will destroy its compactness and cause linguistic problems. The #UnicodeConsortium remains clueless.

PIL in Madras HC against 55 new characters in the Unicode Tamil as it would lead to "adulteration" of Tamil. http://t.co/TD4jNYwwIH
