International Mother Language Day Tweets

Out of 7,000 languages spoken in the world, 96% are spoken by 4% of the world's population.

We can usually express our thoughts much better in our mother language. It has been found that children learn better, especially at the primary stage, if they are taught in their mother language.#MotherLanguageDay

Tamil. தமிழ்.

The first spoken and written language on earth dates back to 7000 BC

Initially tamil language framed using the sounds of animals and nature

Then developed the grammer and literature#MotherLanguageDay

Do you know I can not study and write in my mother's language?
What is the reason? why?
What is the name of this discrimination?

Language plays an important role not only in communication but also in creating a bond of oneness among the people who speak the same tongue. #MotherLanguageDay
