Thanjavur Marathi and Saurashtra are the languages of the Indo-Aryan family, whose speakers settled a long time ago in Tamil Nadu. In the case of Saurashtra, its syntax has undergone radical changes after its migration to the State, the study notes.

It is a language which has Indo-Aryan lexicon characteristics, but its syntax is  of the Dravidian style.

Thanjavur Marathi is another Indo-Aryan language whose speakers settled in Thanjavur two or three centuries ago. They started migrating to Tamil Nadu during the regime of Venkoji in 1764. Their population constitutes 0.13 per cent of the total population of the State. Vagriboli is another Indo-Aryan language related to Gujarati whose speakers are called Narikuravas, a nomadic tribe in Tamil Nadu, says the survey.
