Tamil ↔ English Dictionary
Tamil Dictionary
The Tamil Dictionary looks up the meaning of Tamil and English words, with support for both Tamil-to-English and English-to-Tamil searches.
Two-way word lookup
Enter a Tamil word to find its English meaning, or an English word to find its Tamil equivalent. It is a practical companion for students, learners, translators, and anyone reading or writing across the two languages who hits an unfamiliar word.
Learn as you go
Pair it with the Tamil Transliteration tool to type Tamil words phonetically before looking them up, and the Translator for whole sentences. Building vocabulary word by word is one of the most effective ways to grow fluency.
