Tt also depends on how much one uses Tamil in day-to-day life. That certainly makes difference. A Tamil Teacher/ Tamil Medium Teacher is a common man & people whom you refer is also a common. I do consider myself a common man & I do see the difference. Taminadu people uses பயன்படுத்துதல் for using while Lankan Tamils use பாவித்தல். Those who use it there and here are all common men & women. பாவித்தல் is a strange word that seldom conveys something at the outset to a Common Man here in Tamilnadu. it goes on.. > There is only one செந்தமிழ்.
