The official language of Kerala is Malayalam (മലയാളം). It's one of the 22 scheduled languages of India with about 35 million native speakers. What's interesting is that Malayalam has the highest number of letters in its alphabet among Indian languages - 56 characters! English and Hindi are also widely understood in tourist areas and cities, but Malayalam is what you'll hear in government offices, schools, and daily life throughout the state. If you're visiting, learning a few basic phrases in Malayalam will definitely earn you smiles from the locals!
