Hello,

Can you please translate this pretty sign for me?

I got it at a shop which sells Tamil and other Indian art. The shopkeeper thinks it is a sign for selling Cow Milk by a co-operative in Tamil.

Thank you.

Welcome to our forum, Patrick.

From what I know of the Tamil language, I have transcribed the content displayed

காரைக்குடி கூட்டுறவு  விற்பனை சங்கம் லிமிடெட்

I invite more knowledgeable members to correct me if I am wrong.

Let me list and translate each and every word.

Sequence: Tamil word in Tamil script, the word in English script, the word in Devnagari script , meaning in English

காரைக்குடி  -  KARAIKUDI - कारैकुडी - Name of a small town in Tamil Nadu State on the Eastern coast of South India

கூட்டுறவு  - KOOTTIRAVU - कूट्टिरवु Cooperative

பால் PAAL - पाल - Milk

விற்பனை VIRPANAI - विर्पनै  Sale

சங்கம் SANGAM - संगम Academy/Guild/organisation etc.

லிமிடெட் LIMITED - लिमिटेड


Translated as a whole: Karaikudi Milk Sale Cooperative Limited.

Yes, it is a pretty sign. In fact anything written in the Ancient Tamil script looks pretty!

I hope you found this useful
Regards

Dear All,

I think it is 2 separate words ie:

Karaikudi Cooperative Society (Limited)
for Sale of Milk
