New MemberHello,
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.

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
