<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->A question for the Tamils from TN here, can you guys understand Yazhpanam (Jaffna) dialect or Batticaloa dialect or Eelam Tamizh in general without any trouble<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->With a little effort I can understand it.

There's many patterns of speech in TN. Once used to the variety, additional ones (Sri Lanka, Singaporean Tamizhs' use of the language) don't seem that different. That said, there's still words and phrases I don't understand much, but it's how I learnt new words: from new contexts.
