Word Origin

This Word has a cognate with the tamil word பல (pala). Can anyone add this. Thanks! -தமிழ்க்குரிசில் (talk) 14:12, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Tamil isn't a related language, so the Tamil word isn't, strictly speaking, a cognate. Tamil does have extensive vocabulary borrowed from Sanskrit, which is related, but the Sanscrit form is पुरु (purú). See πολύς for more information. Chuck Entz (talk) 21:22, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
