Sri Lankan Moors are the third largest group in Sri Lanka. They are 9.23% of the population. Almost all of them follow Islam and speak Tamil as their mother tongue.[1][2][3][4][5] They are thought to be from Arab traders who came to Sri Lanka between the 700 and 1400.[6][7][8][9] Many Arabic words are mixed in their dialect, the way they talk.
