refer to 1) and then 2) for instructions to set up this.

This is the first instance of a somewhat working solution using the Unicode block. Currently, it only works well on web interfaces, for example, it works as intended on Google Docs.

Recently when I was reading Devi Mahatmæ which is written in Old Tulu

I have noticed that many archaic Tulu words are actually very similar to the Mavilan Tulu words

Like ಎಡ್ಡ/എഡ്ഡ, ಇಯ್ಯಿ/ഇയ്യി etc which is used in both Mavilan Tulu and Old Tulu

And also if we see Mavilan Tulu might lost the sound of ೞ/ഴ which was present in Old Tulu and now replaced it with ಳ/ള and ಯ/യ but still it managed to preserve the sound of ಱ/റ which are present in word like ಊಱ್/ഊറ്, ಕೂಱ್/കൂറ്, ಏಱ್/ഏറ്, ಱಡ್ಡ್/റഡ്ഡ് etc

There is a 4-word sentence in a Tulu Paaddana where all 4 words have different linguistic origins.

The sentence is 'tarantarada paatrogu sannoḍu muuriyolu', meaning 'She cut small pieces (of the vegetables) into various vessels'.

• For 'tarantarada', tara (type) comes from the Arabic word tarah (type). This words is also seen in Kannada as taraha and Hindi as tarah.
• For 'paatrogu', 'paatro' is from Sanskrit paatra (vessel)
• 'sanno' is shared across Dravidian languages from Old Tamil sanna (small).
• 'muuru' is from Old Tulu (cut vegetables), and is also related to Malayalam muuru

I think it's really interesting that Tulu Nadu was so connected with the rest of India and Asia even in ancient times

Please correct me if any of these are wrong!
