泰米尔文

Tamil is a Unicode block containing characters for the Tamil, Badaga, and Saurashtra languages of Tamil Nadu India, Sri Lanka, Singapore, and Malaysia. In its original incarnation, the code points U+0B02..U+0BCD were a direct copy of the Tamil characters A2-ED from the 1988 ISCII standard. The 天城文  0900–097F , 孟加拉文  0980–09FF , 古吉拉特文  0A80–0AFF , 果鲁穆奇字母  0A00–0A7F , 奥里亚文  0B00–0B7F , 泰卢固文  0C00–0C7F , 卡纳达文  0C80–0CFF and 马拉雅拉姆文  0D00–0D7F blocks were similarly all based on their ISCII encodings.

The Tamil script (tamiḻ ariccuvaṭi) is an abugida script that is used by the Tamil people in India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia and elsewhere, to write the Tamil language, as well as to write the liturgical language Sanskrit, using consonants and diacritics not represented in the Tamil alphabet. Certain minority languages such as Saurashtra, Badaga, Irula, and Paniya are also written in the Tamil script.
