Dress
Code
|
|
The
simple dress code of the people of Kerala
defines their simple lifestyle. Mostly
dressed in white, men wear the mundu, a
sarong-like lower garment that extends well
below the knees. The simple white dress of
malayali women is a sign of their inward
purity, observed Gandhi who was struck by
the simplicity of their dress code.

The
term ‘Malayalam’ as referring to the
language of Kerala is of comparatively
recent origin. To begin with, it denoted the
land itself. It is probable that the term is
the resultant of a combination of two words,
mala meaning mountain and alam meaning the
land or locality. The intimacy that
subsisted between the two languages all
through the centuries, the identity that the
grammars and vocabularies of both the
languages evince, and the old practice of
using the term ‘Tamil’ as a synonym for
Malayalam have all lent considerable support
to this theory.
Malayalam is classified as a South Dravidian
language. It is the official language of
Kerala. About 31.8 million people consider
Malayalam as their mother tongue. Possessing
an independent written scipt, it also has a
rich modern literature.
