Indo-Aryan loanwords in Tamil
The
Tamil language
has absorbed a large number of
Indo-Aryan
,
Prakrit
,
Pali
and
Sanskrit
, loanwords ever since the early 1st millennium CE, when the
Sangam period
Chola kingdoms
became influenced by spread of
Jainism
,
Buddhism
and
early Brahmanism
. Many of these loans are obscured by adaptions to Tamil phonology.
