Excerpt from The Imperial Gazetteer of India, Vol. 14: Jaisalmer to Kara It should be stated that no attempt has been made to distinguish between the long and short sounds of e and 0 in the Dravidian languages, which possess the vowel-sounds in 'bet' and 'hot' in addition to those given above. Nor has it been thought necessary to mark vowels as long in cases where mistakes in pronunciation were not likely to be made.
