When I came to Thrissur first time before 4 years, I took months to learn Thrissur Malayalam, now also can't understand many words. Now also, if I stay for some days at my home and come back, find it difficult to understand Thrissur Malayalam for some days. In our state, correct Malayalam is followed by people belong to Kottayam and Pathanamthitta district only....even beggars speak standard Malayalam. :P :P
What about you people? Are you speaking written language?
Where can you find people speaking it correct, in your state????

I can speak english, tamil, Sowrastra.
On this i know how to write english, tamil. Now im learning to write sowrastra also. :cheer:
I think, you have not understood my question yet :huh:
Spoken language often differs from written one. I want to know, how many of you are speaking with correct grammar and pronunciation?
Our state is among the smallest ones of India. Yet, we can see vast difference in the usage of words. That's why am asking
Generally, we speak in mother tongue informally and even use slang. But we learn other languages in school and the difference between written and spoken disappears. In fact, people speak in local dialect which differs from the standard one. I am in Agra. Here the locals speak among themselves in Brijbhasha, which differs from standard Hindi. I think same is all over the world. A native speaker first learns speaking and goes to school later. For him speaking comes first and writing later.
I don't I speak punjabi usually but don't know how to write even the alphabets
I can also speak in Punjabi but can neither read nor write. This is because this is my mother tongue, which I learnt speaking in family and relatives. Tis is so with all.
I agree with you. I too speak sowrastra but i dont know speak nor write. This is my mother tongue. As my family members speaks So i learnt to speak the same. :)
my mother tongue is Bengali and I don't hear about bengalish ( Bangla+Eng)
Spoken Bangla differs in various parts of Bengal. I lived in Shillong for a few years. There were many Bengali in my office. They were mostly refugees from East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) and originated from Silhat (Bangladesh). They admitted that they speak Bangla differently from Calcutta's.
The difference between written language and spoken is obvious for mother tongue. This may also be when you learn spoken language by living at a particular place.

i am asking whether your spoken and written Tamil are same...
At TVM_KK borders, you can see Malayalam-Tamil mix.....when we go to Kanya Kumari......a different Tamil....it differs by a bit as we pass through different areas.
In Kerala, it's very different that it appears as if they are speaking some tribal language :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

But when we start writing pure grammatic tamil language then our spoken tamil is entirely differ from than writen tamil. But writen tamil language is always differ from spoken tamil language. :)
