first regular lexicon

Latest comment: 11 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

"Although the origin of the Tamil language dates back to antiquity, the first regular lexicon of the language, with words arranged alphabetically, did not appear until the eighteenth century." Needs to be verified. Because, in Tamil lexicology Akarathi Nikandu (அகராதி நிகண்டு) is generally considered the first dictionary to be arranged alphabetically. Thus, the following statements contradicts the first statement. --Natkeeran (talk) 13:36, 9 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
