|
| The Tamil treatise on Love is very elaborate. It identifies several stages in the love-life of a young man and a woman. The neighbourhood secretly sharing information on the affair of a man and a woman (அம்பல்), the neighbourhood talking more openly about the affair (அலர் தூற்றுதல்), the elopement of the man and the woman, when the parents are not agreeable to marriage (உடன்போக்கு), the culmination of the affair in marriage (திருமணம்), and the life after marriage (கற்பு). |
