Dear Herman,


the Chicago electronic version of the Tamil Lexicon (https://dsal.uchicago.edu/dictionaries/tamil-lex/) has a "words ending with" function. By using this function, quite a lot of nouns ending in -iṉ can be found. Many of them are obscure, but at least the words வயின் vayiṉ, "place", and கவின் kaviṉ, "beauty", are well attested in classical Tamil.


Best regards,
Jonas

Dear List members, or in particular those interested in Tamil,


I would like to know if there is a "reverse" (rückläufiges) dictionary of Tamil. I am looking for free nouns ending in -iṉ (thus not niṉ, the oblique of the second person singular pronoun).

Herman.
