Morphology and Syntax of the Tamil Language
This paper provides an overview of the morphology and syntax of the Tamil language, focusing on its contemporary usage. The paper also highlights the complexity and richness of Tamil in terms of its morphological and syntactic features, which will be useful for linguists analysing the language and conducting comparative studies. In addition, the paper will be useful for those developing computational resources for the Tamil language. It is proven as a rule-based morphological analyser cum generator and a computational grammar for Tamil have already been developed based on this paper. To enhance accessibility for a broader audience, the analysis is conducted without relying on any specific grammatical formalism.
