Abstract: This paper deals with the pronouns, person-number-gender (PNG) and certain tense-aspect-modality (TAM) markers of Hebbar Tamil, a Tamil variety spoken by the Hebbar Iyengar community. This is a Brahmin community traditionally based in the southern regions of Karnataka state, particularly in the districts of Haasan, Tumkur, Mandya, Kolar, Bangalore and Mysore. There are no reliable statistics on the number of speakers of this variety of Tamil. The language essentially comprises a substratum closely related to standard Tamil, but with considerable lexical influence from Kannada. All the language varieties in question belong to the Dravidian family of languages.
