                     List of Tamil words in Kashmiri language 

                                                  by 

                   Dr. Variankaval Ramasamy Annadurai; MD; DPM; 

Kashmiri or Koshur is a language from the Dardic subgroup of Indo-Aryan languages, spoken by around 7 million Kashmiris of the Kashmir region, primarily in the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

In 2020, the Parliament of India passed a bill to make Kashmiri an official language of Jammu and Kashmir along with Dogri, Hindi, Urdu and English. Kashmiri is also among the 22 scheduled languages of India.

Kashmiri has split ergativity and the unusual verb-second word order.

There are about 6.8 million speakers of Kashmiri and related dialects in Jammu and Kashmir and amongst the Kashmiri diaspora in other states of India. Most Kashmiri speakers are located in the Kashmir Valley and other areas of Jammu and Kashmir. In the Kashmir valley, they form a majority.

Kashmiri is also spoken in Pakistan, primarily in the territory of Azad Kashmir, where the speakers are mostly concentrated in the Neelam and Leepa valleys and in the district of Haveli.] Their numbers are not known exactly, but in 2012 they were estimated at around 130,000. At the 2017 Census of Pakistan, as many as 350,000 people declared their first language to be Kashmiri. Further in Azad Kashmir, in last several decades due to encouragement of the Punjabi language and change in demography from nearby places the Kashmiri language is limited to small quarters of the area at present. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kashmiri_language

Clues to read Kashmiri words into Tamil 

 

Letter ‘k’ = ‘v’; v= ‘ka’; letter ‘Ra’= ‘la’.  

Add vowels then and there.

Letter ’p’ and letter ‘s’ can be retained/ deleted /added or exchanged. 

 Add letters ‘m’ and ‘n’ then and there. 

A consonant letter can be read more than once.

If a same letter occurs consecutively more than once it can be read as a single letter.

By jumbling the letters of the given Kashmiri word, a Tamil word can be derived.
