Tamil is not just a language—it is one of humanity’s longest-continuing cultural conversations. With roots reaching back over 5,000 years, Tamil stands today as a living classical language, spoken, written, sung, coded, and celebrated across generations and continents.

📜 Origins of Tamil – From Sound to Civilization

Tamil belongs to the Dravidian language family, evolving independently alongside the Indus–South Indian civilizations. Early Tamil existed first as spoken poetry and oral tradition long before it was written down.

• c. 3000–2000 BCE – Proto-Dravidian roots (spoken form)

• c. 500 BCE – 300 CE – Sangam Age: Tamil flourishes as a literary language

• Works like Tolkāppiyam (Tamil grammar) show a highly evolved linguistic system, comparable to Greek or Latin.

Family Connect is a warm and inclusive group within NJTTS that brings families together to build meaningful relationships rooted in Tamil culture and values. Through shared activities, discussions, and celebrations, we strengthen family bonds, encourage intergenerational connection, and create a supportive community where every family feels welcomed, valued, and connected.
