Outside Tamilandu and Tamil fanatics, nobody thinks 'Dravidian' is descended from Tamil. It is nonsense linguistics because no linguist thinks like that. Dravidian is a name for a group of similar languages, in which Tamil is one. Even what we call Tamil has undergone historical evolution for the last 2500 years. For lack of a better word, we call the whole gamut of linguistic evolution in Tamilnadu as Tamil, even though linguists distinguish between Old Tamil, Middle Tamil and Modern Tamil. வன்பாக்கம் விஜயராகவன்https://www.blogger.com/profile/16336764407971993989noreply@blogger.com
