Malayali
The Malayali (also Malayalee) are a Dravidian people who inhabit the South Indian state of Kerala and the Union Territory of Lakshadweep and have the Malayalam language as their mother tongue. Malayalis are described to be one of the most accepting and diverse communities in India, owing to a history of immigrants to the region from various parts of the world, as well as a unique sub-culture owing to the tropical environment of the state.〔〔 According to the Indian census of 2011, there are approximately 33 million Malayalis in Kerala,〔 making up 96.7% of the total population of the state. Hence the word Keralite is often used synonymously with Malayali, though a proper definition is ambiguous.
==Etymology==
Malayalam, the native language of Malayalis, has its origin from the words ''mala'' meaning mountain (in Tamil and Malayalam) and ''alam'' meaning land or locality.〔 – go to the website and click the link – language & literature to retrieve the information〕 Hence the term ''Malayali'' refers to the people from the mountains who lived beyond the Western Ghats, and Malayalam the language that was spoken there.
