A question about Malankara rite
editAfter reading a lot of books, I got a doubt in my mind about Malankara rite. History says about Malankara Nasrani(Christians)from earlier times. My concern is about WHAT a Malankara rite is? As per my knowledge Malankara rite started with the spread of Christianity in India. Most of our ancient records reiterates it especially Angamaly padiyola. Then what is the reason starting a Malankara rite in 1665 with the introduction of west syriac?Thanks Mandrake_the_Magician (talk) 01:39, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
There is no rite called Malankara rite in Catholic Church
editIf this article is written with Syro-Malankara Catholic church in mind, let me clarify that there is no rite called "Malankara Rite" Syro Malankara Catholic church is one of the Particular church (sui iuris) of the Universal Catholic Church. This church practices West Syriac Rite which is written originally in Liturgical Syriac and translated to Malayalam. [1]. Two other churches are also there practicing the same rite. I propose to remove this page. Thanks, Jobind (talk) 15:37, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

Title 'Malankara Rite' is misleading
edit@Cuchullain: Before reverting to 'Malankara Rite', you must provide references to the title. As far as I am aware, there is no distinct Malankara Rite. The liturgy, the chants, the music, Vespers.. etc. all are identical to those used in the Syriac Orthodox Church, precisely the Tikrit tradition. Jude Didimus (talk) 02:38, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
- The cited sources use "Malankara Rite" or a close variation. I don't see any that use "Syro-Antiochian Rite in Malabar", and in fact our article on the main rite is at "West Syriac Rite", not "Syro-Antiochian Rite". Chupungco and the Oxford History of Christian Worship use "Malankara Rite" while King uses "Syro-Malankara rite". The name is used in reference to the West Syriac Rite as it's employed in the Malankara churches. As Chupungco says, "The Malankara liturgical usages follow the Syrian Rite with local variations that sometimes represent an earlier stage of the Syrian tradition, e.g., the Liturgy of Presanctified Gifts on Lenten weekdays and Friday of passion week." Additionally, "Malayalam has largely replaced Syriac as the liturgical language."--Cúchullain t/c 14:44, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
