Three different regional dialects are associated with Malayalam. There is a difference in all the regional dialects and the way they are spoken. Each caste has a different way to speak its dialect. Due to this difference, there is a differentiation among formal, literary, and colloquial speech. Malayalam is inspired by Sanskrit words while it is also influenced by Grantha script.
