This article examines the organisation of the
Uriyiyal
, which is the 8th chapter inside the 2nd book of the
Tolkāppiyam
, the most ancient Tamil grammatical work preserved. That chapter, because it provides (approximate) synonyms for 120 “unfrequent words”, many of them polysemic, represents the earliest lexicographical attempt in Tamil. Those 120 words all belong to the category of
uriccol
, a residual lexical category, examined by the
Tolkāppiyam
once the nouns
(peyarccol)
, the verbs
(viṉaiccol)
and the particles
(iṭaiccol)
have been dealt with in earlier chapters. The final section of the article examines the posterity of the
Uriyiyal
, which becomes a marginal section in grammatical literature, but finds its full development in the different scholarly landscape which is created with the composition of thesauri such as the
Tivākaram
and its successors.
