This might sound like a strange request, but I'm working on a novel for young adults and have to prepare some background on a Tamil-speaking character. <BR/><BR/>I want to portray this character as authentically and respectful as possible, so I was wondering if we could have a brief exchange, on some basics of Tamil language and culture. It wouldn't take much of your time; a couple of emails, at most.<BR/><BR/>Sir, I apologize if my request causes any offense. I simply understand that Indian culture is a diverse blend of languages and ethnic backgrounds. I want to be fair and accurate--I don't want to have a Tamil character who, for instance, has a Bengali name or uses Gujarati slang. I'd really appreciate a bit your time, and hope we can work together on this. Feel free to message me back if you're interested. And again, thank you for your time, sir.<BR/><BR/>Sincerely.<BR/><BR/>M. FreemanMilohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05402063641547151464noreply@blogger.com
