None. I am a student of both. A near native speaker of one and an admirer of another. Anyway unless you take some similarities and get carried away : Ab (أب)- Abban/Appan - Father ’Um (أم) - Amma - Mother Ukh (أخ) - Annan - Brother Ukht (أخت) - Akka - Sister (Elder in Tamil) Jida...

None.

 

I am a student of both.

 

A near native speaker of one and an admirer of another.

 

Anyway unless you take some similarities and get carried away :

 

Ab (أب)- Abban/Appan - Father

’Um (أم) - Amma - Mother

Ukh (أخ) - Annan - Brother

Ukht (أخت) - Akka - Sister (Elder in Tamil)

Jida (جدة) - Paatti - Grandmother

It is not without reason that they are classified into the language families that they are.

 

The only possible similarity is that a diglossia tends to exist among educated Arabs - they know their own Arabic language and Fus-ha.

 

Similarly among Tamils, they are taught Chen Tamil, so they know that besides the spoken standard and non standard variants.
