Those who know English would not have missed enjoying Shakespeare,.
If ever a Poet/Dramatist were to be found who could mirror emotions in simple powerful words it is the bard of Avon.
I have some post on him.
The most famous of his lines in As You Like It' on the Stages of Man is a piece in itself...
If Shakespeare could do it,Tamil could do it better, in classifying the Chronological Age of man and Woman.
Tamil , a Language of antiquity, alive and kicking well, has made life into an At by its literature and its classification of Life in Grammar.
Tamils have divide Life into two parts, one that deals with external activities expressed outwards, like War,Arguments,Valor,Philanthropy, called Puram(The term means 'outside').
Another is Aham(inside) which deals with emotions like Love, Despair.
Under Aham the chronological Age of Man and Woman has been taken to classify Ages.
