Malayalam is a Dravidian language spoken in southern India, primarily in the state of Kerala. It has an alphasyllabary script, typical of languages of India. The language had roughly 35 million native speakers by 2011. This app is designed to help you become comfortable with recognizing more and more complex letter forms until you can read and construct full-words. Start first by studying the vowels, practicing writing them down and then trying the quiz. Then try the quiz with the diacritics. Then, move on to consonants. This may take more time, as there are many consonants. Then, try the quiz with the consonant-vowel ligatures. Finally, try the quiz with the conjunct consonants. The word scramble game lets you try putting full words together. You can also try the typing game if you have a Malayalam keyboard installed on your phone.
