Tamil is a rich language. The language has grown in tune with the nature. The Total ignorance by the fellow Tamils is the result of this foolishness. There is no need to use foreign words when the Tamil language has them all. New words can be coined easily. There is no need for the Tamils to speak the Offical language 'Hindi' in Tamil Nadu. This is pure discrimination. The TN Tamils don't know Hindi. Many of them (80%) live in villages and only know Tamil. The Tamil medias are controlled by those who are illiterated on Tamil. As a result, you see and listen to impure Tamil words.
The reason why the Tamil language hasn't developed in to computer because of Indian Educational policy. Indian Education system restrict a native language from developing it self in to the Technological and science mainstream. It wants everyone to feel 'INDIAN' but it promote DEAD language Sanskrit and the so called 'Official language' Hindi. Sanskrit came from Prakrit, Tamil and Indo-European roots.
Tamil language is being spoken by more than 80 million Tamils but there is no basic Tamil keyboard layout.
If and should Tamil develop in term of Technology and Science, then Tamils should be allowed to learn these things using their mother tongue (Tamil) in Tamil Nadu (Tamil Nadu is a state in India, also known as TN).
Long Live TAMIL!
