More Dravidian language identification

Lately, What Language Is This?, the web-based language identification tool I'm running, has been getting many hits from Tamil-language sources, probably as a result of being covered in two seemingly popular blogs, techintamil.blogspot.com, and tamilnenjam.com. As another blogger pointed out,

Also this service is very good at identifying indic languages (where as many other services fail to understand).

Well, thanks. And yes, I have been making sure that the languages of the Indian subcontinent and its surrounding areas are thoroughly supported for identification.

But two notable languages have been missing, and I finally got around to adding them. Namely the two Dravidian languages Malayalam (not to be confused with Malay, to which it is unrelated) and Kannada (not to be confused with Canada, to which it is unrelated).

Together with the already supported Tamil and Telugu, this means that all four literary Dravidian languages are supported now! I hope this will be of use to many, and I'd like to thank the Dravidian-speaking bloggers for their support in the form of writing about the site.
