    காரம் Kaaram கராய் Karai hot
    ற kuusudhal or kuusu Kusu guru or தாய் kusugutai Tickling or tickle
    Pal Ha Tooth

    Both languages follow SOV word order and have similar syntax.

    Meaning : Nobody is there.


    In the above example the particle “mo” in Japanese
    யா ேம இல் ைல yaaru me illai தாேர ேமா னாய் Daare mo nai
    corresponds to “me” or “um” in Tamil ( “me” is colloquial
    form, pure word is “"yaarum illai” )

    Even some words which have multiple meanings, mean the same in both languages.

    க் மஸ் kikimasu ேகட் ம் , kettal means both hear and effective


    ketkiradha ? kekudha? 聞こえますか？(kikoemasuka) English : Can you hear me ?
    Intha marundhu kekudha? Or kekuma? Kono Kusuriha kikimasuka? English : Is this medicine effective ?

    Questions end with a ka in Japanese and ‘a’ in Thamizh


    Iru Iru be
    Iruka Iruka Is it there?
    இ க்கா? இல் ைலயா? Iruka? illaiya? இ க்கா? னாய் கா? Iruka ? naika ? ( Is it there or not there ? )

    Even the symbolic words !

    Manai means house, So, wife in Tamizh literally means ‘one


    who maintains the house ‘ or one who belongs to the house
    மைன = மைன+ manaivi - manai +vi கனாய் Kanai
    கனாய் Kanai - ka +nai - 家内 - Meaning the same , Ka -
    house , nai - means inside.

    The Japanese use similar expressions for expressing dismay or surprise

    அட அடா Ada ada அர அரா Ara Ara for dismay


    ம் (Un) ம் (Un) yes
    ம் ஹ ம் (Uhun or uhum) ம் ஹ ம் (Uhun or uhum) for no in colloquial form
