Judeo-Malayalam

Judeo - Malayalam is the traditional language of the Cochin Jews (also Malabar Jews ) in Kerala in South India and is still spoken by about 8,000 Jews in Israel and probably less than 100 Jews in India. Judeo - Malayalam is the only known Jewish Dravidian language. The only other Dravidian language that is spoken regularly by a Jewish community, Telugu.

Grammar, syntax

Due to the fact that Judeo - Malayalam differs only slightly in grammar and syntax in the normative Malayalam, it is classified by many linguists as a dialect or simply as the same language with a different orthography. It therefore has the same language code as Malayalam.
