About 96% of the people of Thrissur speak Malayalam as their mothertongue.
Only 2.5% of the people speak Tamil as their mothertongue. A negligible
percentage of the population of Kodungallur and Mukundapuram
taluks speak Konkani.
As in the case of all other languages, there is some difference between
the colloquial languages and the written dialect in Malayalam also.
Though there is difference in the dialects spoken by the various sections
and classes of the society , the fundamental unity of the Malayalam
languages is not affected in any way.The dialects spoken by the more
primitive of the hill tribes differ considerably from Malayalam, but
they hardly deserve to be regarded as separate languages.
