Thanjavur Marathi as Dakshini Marathi

Thanjavur Marathi is now more recognizable as Dakshini Marathi. 

As most of you may know, Dakshin refers to South  and we Marathis having settled in the South of India, this is an apt description for us. 

When my father was around he would always say, we should have a name like Dakshini Marathi and not Thanjavur Marathi. 

So next time anybody asks you if you are Marathi or what your language is, proudly state, yes we speak Dakshini Marathi
