Malayalam Language

Malayalam language

Malayalam is the language spoken by the Malayalis. Malayalam is derivative from Middle Tamil in the 6th century, of which Modern Tamil was also derived.An another theory proposes a come apart in more ancient times.For cultural purposes Malayalam and Sanskrit formed a language known as Manipravalam, where both languages were used in an alternating style. Malayalam is the only among the major Dravidian languages without diglossia. This means, that the Malayalam which is spoken does not differ from the written variation. Malayalam is written using the Malayalam script.

HINDI-LANGUAGE

Standard Hindi, or more precisely Modern Standard Hindi, also known as Manak Hindi (Devanagari: ), High Hindi, Nagari Hindi, and Literary Hindi, is a standardized and sanskritized register of the Hindustani language derived from the Khariboli dialect of Delhi. It is the official language of the Republic of India.

Colloquial Hindi is mutually intelligible with another register of Hindustani called Urdu. Mutual intelligibility decreases in literary and specialized contexts which rely on educated vocabulary. Due to religious nationalism and communal tensions, speakers of both Hindi and Urdu frequently assert that they are separate languages, despite the fact that native speakers generally cannot tell the colloquial languages apart. The combined population of Standard Hindi-Urdu speakers is the fourth largest in the world. However, the number of native speakers of Standard Hindi is unclear. According to the 2001 Indian census, 258 million people in India reported their native language to be “Hindi”. However, this includes large numbers of speakers of Hindi dialects besides Standard Hindi; as of 2009, the best figure Ethnologue could find for Khariboli Hindi was a 1991 citation of 180 million.

World Famous-Spoken Languages

There are currently over 6900 languages spoken in the world. Some of those languages are only spoken by a handful of people, and are on their way to extinction just like Latin, dodos, Aramaic, and dinosaurs. If you’re interested in learning a language, however, it might be better to choose one of those languages that is spoken most widely.

There are a number of ways to measure a language, but here are the top five languages based on the number of native speakers. Even this is difficult to measure, but it’s certainly more reliable than most alternatives.

1 ) Mandarin Chinese (845 million+)
Mandarin is the national language of the People’s Republic of China, and as such it can boast a whopping 845 million speakers. Add in everyone who speaks Mandarin as an additional language, and you’re looking at over 1 billion people! And Mandarin speakers are not limited on only China. There are large Chinese communities in many other Asian countries, as well as farther-flung lands such as Europe, North America, and now even Africa. It’s not surprise, then, that this is also an official languages spoken of the United Nations and one of the fastest growing languages on Earth.

2 ) Spanish (329 million+)

Unknown to many, what we typically call “Spanish” is just one of several languages and dialects spoken inSpain. It is specifically Castilian Spanish which we think of when we refer to the Spanish language. Like English, Spanish was spread largely by colonization. This means that it is now spoken in many diverse locations worldwide by many different nations. This wide-spread use has also awarded Spanish with the honor of one of the official languages of the United Nations.

 

 

3)  English (328 million+)
Due largely to wide-spread colonization, English is one of the most diverse and spread out languages in the world. English is also one of the six official languages of the United Nations, and it’s treated as the world’s common language. To meet communication needs, nearly 200 million non-native speakers learn to speak English to varying degrees. This is no excuse to not learn a foreign language, however, as I’ve covered in another article

4) Hindi-Urdu (240 million+)
Through sheer population density, Hindi-Urdu manages to get into the top five. With ex-Colony status and connection throughout the English-speaking world, many Hindi-Urdu speakers are also frequent immigrants to other countries. Plus, with the strong cultural and family ties common in Hindi-Urdu-speaking countries, the language can survive for generations in a foreign land. With the growing economic power ofIndia and surrounding countries, this is becoming a frequently learned language, too.

 

5 ) Arabic (206 million+)
As the language of Islam, Arabic serves as a cultural glue for many otherwise different countries. The Koran is still written in Arabic, and it serves as a unifying symbol the world over. Also, large swaths of the Middle East and northernAfrica speak Arabic as either a mother tongue or a common language. It has earned distinction as one of the six official languages of the United Nations.

spoken languages

Spoken language is a form of human communication in which words derived from a large vocabulary (usually at least 10,000) together with a diverse variety of names are expressed through or with the mouth. All words are made up from a limited set of vowels and consonants. The spoken words they make are stringed into syntactically organized sentences and phrases. The vocabulary and syntax together with the speech sounds it uses define its identity as a particular natural language.

Some human languages exist with their own vocabularies and syntax that are not spoken but use sign gestures. Sign languages have the same natural origin as spoken languages, and the same grammatical complexities, but use the hands, arms, and face rather than parts of the mouth as their place of articulation.

Many spoken languages are written. However, even today, there are many world languages that can be spoken but have no standard written form. Such languages can be expressed in writing using the International Phonetic Alphabet.

Hearing persons attain their first language from that spoken around them, usually primarily their mothers. Spoken language is much richer than written language; for example, transcripts of actual speech show numerous hesitancies which are usually left out of written forms of ‘speech’ such as screenplays.

Even from the point of view of syntax, spoken language usually has its own set of grammatical patterns which sometimes may be quite different from that in written language. In many languages, the written form is considered a different language, a situation called diglossia.
