This is grantham script used to write Sanskrit.

At the begining of the image you see these words
𑌗𑍍𑌰𑌨𑍍𑌥 𑌲𑌿𑌪𑌿 it says grantha lipi which means grantham script.

I read grantham script rather slowly and not as fast as Devanagari so I only translated the first two words for you.

hi

this is grantham lipi....we used this lipi in veda patashala.....we had vedic books in this lipi only...

now sanskrit books available...this is kind of dravidam and sanskrit...
 
This looks like some over enthusiastic dravidan has included tamil words in a majorly grantham text to somehow indicate that tamil existed during grantham days itself and is older than sanskrit.. ie the oldest goldest language is tamil.. The picture is itself false.. Its not a pic. Its a screenshot of typed text using multiple fonts.. ie.. grantham and tamil with the same underlying sentence.. Like typing a sentence in English and then changing a few alphabets to tamil script..

நீங்ga purinchiட்டிங்களா ...

what would u call the above.. tamil right?? because the sentence is essentially tamil which means -- did u understand.. but the typed font is now both tamil and english.. therefore are we supposed to understand that now english is also the oldest and goldest language?? Wrong. Am I right?

Please use your gray cells.. we already have a foreign origin poster posting long AI generated passages questioning long held cherished beliefs like - vedas / puranas and how their age predates the christian era and actually being unknown - on this forum.. we do not also want dravidian inaccurate representations which border on lies to also to be posted here.

Grantham is a script...its not a language.. its derived from Pallava script.
The Pallava script can be found in Malaysia too in ancient Hindu-Buddhist archaelogical sites as it was used to write ancient Malay.
The Pallava script too gave rise to current day script of Thailand.

Btw the screen shot image attached is indeed Grantham script where some alphabets resemble modern day Tamil and Malayalam.
Its not any one trying fo fit in Tamil into it.
I studied this script long back from a book I bought from an elderly Tamil Brahmin man from India.
He didnt even want to receive money from me and sent it to my house address saying he is happy that someone wants to learn Grantham script.
I paid him the amount on the book for his effort and dedication.
 
Dear Krishnan ji,
Take a look at the snap shot I attached.
It shows Grantham consonants.
Some of it looks similar to modern day Tamil.
