Your Ultimate Guide to The Languages of Sri Lanka!
The tiny island just off India's southern coast, Sri Lanka is likely one of those countries you seldom think about. Yet the languages of Sri Lanka are truly quite remarkable, being both a microcosm of the languages of other Asian nations, whilst also being rather unique.
Indeed, millennia of conquest, occupation and interbreeding with hundreds of empires has left its toll on Sri Lanka, with it having both global languages and languages indigenous to the island. Quite cool indeed.
