Poezold and Johann Philipp Fabricius and published in 1809, is a valuable resource for historical linguistics and those interested in the intersection of Tamil and English languages during the colonial era. This dictionary provides insights into the vocabulary and linguistic landscape of the Malabar region of India at the turn of the 19th century. It stands as a testament to the early efforts in comparative linguistics and lexicography and represents an important tool for understanding the historical relationship between Tamil and English.
