Malayalam Alphabets [ÎÜÏÞ{¢ ¥føÎÞÜ]

Malayalam is spoken in the South Indian state of Kerala and is a language in the Dravidian Family of 5 languages and does not belong to Indo-European Family. But Malayalam has been heavily influenced by Sanskrit in its alphabets, grammer and later literary developments. There is a theory which states that all Indian languages including Sanskrit and Dravidian, derived their scripts from Brahmi.

As seen from the map of India below, Kerala is the only state in India to claim 100% literacy!
