How to say me dawaswala / Aajkal(Nowadays) in spoken Tamil? How would I say the following question in spoken Tamil? These days I am working in Melbourne. Aajal main melbourne men kam karta hoon. (Hindi) me dawaswala mama melbourne wala weda karanava. (Sinhala) Indha naargalil naan melbournil velai paarkkiren (Written Tamil). But spoken Madras / Thanjavur Tamil? I have much respect for Yaazhpanam Tamil (Jaffna Tamil) but its not very useful in India, and I speak too much Sinhala in my Tamil also - So I am wanting a lot of help to be a good speaker.
