Language is the tool used by humans to exchange ideas and thoughts with others. For this purpose, the mother tongue is the most effective. Among all the languages of the world, Tamil possesses unique natural phonetics and exceptional script. It is a language that emerged first, flourished, and attained classical excellence; hence, our Tamil language became a "Classical Language" (Semmozhi).
