Malayalam as modified Tulu
Hi,

I removed the paragraph that you added, that says that "There is strong view that Malayalm alphabet derived from Tulu alphabets". Such a claim must be attributed to the people who hold that view, for example linguists or historians who published this in a book, a scientific journal or a reliable website.

Please see Manual of Style/Words to watch for further explanation of this.

Thank you for understanding. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 09:53, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Malayalam as modified Tulu
Hi

The derivation of Malayalam alphabets has been researched but no effort was seriously made to find out similarity of Tulu and Malayalam alphabets. Your kind attention invited to the wiki article on Tulu and see how words Tulu languages was written in many languages in the first line of the article. You just observe the similarity between Malayalam and Tulu alphabets there. In the above mentioned article you can read the following observance.

"The numbers 0 to 9 are represented through separate characters. The script was derived from the Grantha and bears partial similarity to Malayalam script."

Is removal of the paragraph justified ? I think the act requires reconsideration.
