Since two years, I have not done much Tamil learning, partly because I had not met Shanthi(my asiriyai) much in the last couple of years and so I had been doing it by myself and I did not know where to go from there. Here is the first part of my last lesson. Please make any corrections if necessary. I need help to get back into learning Tamil. ie: motivation. Once one has stopped doing this kind of thing, it is difficult to start again. nanRi.
