Quote:

The Chitty are a distinctive group of Tamil language people found mainly in Malacca, who are also known as the Indian Peranakans. As of today, their population stands at 2,000.

So, Chitty is a group of people or a group of languages? I'm changing it. __earth 05:58, July 17, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Chitty-Chetty?

hey, just wondering... is there any relation between the two? Do they also keep caste distinctions? Domsta333 13:12, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] So what does Columbo Chitty mean?

Is chitty just a Tamil word for Tamils living in traditionally non-Tamil-speaking areas?
