 Tamil language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The final letter of the name, usually transcribed as the lowercase l or zh, is a retroflex r.
Tamil has the oldest literature amongst the Dravidian languages (Hart, 1975), but dating the language and the literature precisely is difficult.
The earliest extant text in Tamil is the Tolkāppiyam, a work on poetics and grammar which describes the language of the classical period, the oldest portions of this book may date back to around 200 BCE (Hart, 1975).

Also, since there is no language immune to change, classical languages tend to be either dead languages, or show a high degree of diglossia, as the spoken varieties of the language diverge further and further away from the classical written language over centuries.

 The Hindu : Ancient Tamil poem
Hart and A. Ramanujan have spoken of them as poems of "love and war" for their volumes, equating "aham" with "love".
Hart and Heifetz have gone for an elegant variation: Songs of War and Wisdom.
Perhaps the poems in the Purananuru are themselves not oral, says Hart as "the text is often far too complex to have been extemporized." Poetic conceits and resonant words are avoided.

 TIME.com: Loyalty and Leniency -- Jun. 17, 1974 -- Page 1
Former Attorney General Richard Kleindienst—the first Cabinet alumnus since 1929 to be convicted of a crime —stood solemnly before Federal Judge George L. Hart Jr.
Kleindienst's attorney pleaded that his client had "a distinguished record in the military and in service to the Government of the United States." The judge noted Kleindienst's fine character, the supporting letters from his friends and the favorable report from a probation officer.
Later he admitted that at one point, Nixon had ordered him to drop a Supreme Court appeal with the admonition: "You son of a bitch, don't you understand the English language?" Certainly the Senate committee had been totally deceived by his testimony.

 Hart Papers
So, after 1919, I only gave casual thought to the subject; now and then going back and reading over my old papers, and writing to some one, or talking with some one about it.
In the December,1924, number of THE AMERICAN I read an article about Colonel George Fabyan, of Riverbank Laboratories, Geneva, Ill., and his success during World War I, and since, in reading code messages.
I wrote to him, sending a copy of the three ciphers; and, after some correspondence back and forth, I forwarded to him a copy of such data as I had, but with special request that he not make any use of the manuscript, or ciphers, other than an attempt to decipher the ciphers.
