The Telugu language is not derived from Tamil. Telegu is one of the Dravidian languages, originated along with Gondi (spoken in Madhya Pradesh) and Kovi(spoken in Orissa). It is mainly spoken by the people in the southeastern state of India - Andra Pradesh and Telangana. After Hindi and Bengali, it is considered to have spoken by a lot of people in India. The Telugu language was first formed by Renati Cholas, who ruled the Kadappah regions. Telugu split from th Proto-Dravidian languages between 1000BC -1500BC.

Some people referring here the "Dravidian Language" Could any explain what is Dravidian Language and when and where it was born. Ground Reality is "None" The Term "Dravidam" is used to call the group of people in Southern India and Its not specific language or culture. The Truth is Tamil is the origin of Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada. Sanskrit may have few influences of this language, but it was dead long before. People who cannot digest are started hiding the History of Languages.

Telugu is an Indo European language which originated quite some time ago. It probably originated from Prakrit. Telugu speakers settled in the southern part of Bharat, and the proto Dravidian language was spoken at that time. This proto Dravidian has altered the structure of Telugu a lot.
Then Sanskrit, Urdu, and Persian also flew into Telugu. Linguists made Telugu devoid of Urdu and Sanskrit while classifying. But they didn't remove the proto Dravidian. So Telugu became a Dravidian language. But in reality, Telugu is a pure Indo European language.
