Dravidian languages typically follow a Subject-Verb-Object word order, where the subject comes before the verb and the object comes after the verb.

Dravidian languages generally employ an Ergative-Absolutive case marking system, where the subject of an intransitive verb or the object of a transitive verb is marked with the absolutive case, while the subject of a transitive verb is marked with the ergative case.

Dravidian languages often have a series of retroflex consonants, which are pronounced with the tongue curled back towards the roof of the mouth.

Inflection is the process by which a word changes its form to indicate different grammatical functions, such as tense, aspect, mood, number, gender, or case.

Noun-Noun compounds are a common type of compound in Dravidian languages, where two nouns are combined to form a new noun with a new meaning.
