How to install Tamil language in Ubuntu touch?

Question

How should I install the Tamil language on Ubuntu Touch on my Nexus 5? I can't even install just the ttf-Tamil-fonts through the terminal.

Any solution that would let me read Tamil on the web browser would be appreciated.

How should I proceed?

do you want to change the OS operational language into tamil, else just want to enter tamil text ? — A J, Feb 23 '15 at 7:53

It is quite easy to change languages on Ubuntu Touch using the following steps,

Then you can set the display language and the keyboard language to Tamil. I would expect this to automatically install the necessary fonts required. If you are still unable to read Tamil in the browser, please proceed to file a bug.
