Abstract
Abstract: In social media, users have the privilege of connecting with people and extensively communicate, share information, discuss topics of recent trends. Friendster, LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter are some media through which users can perform the activities as mentioned earlier.

In this paper, Sentiment Analysis is employed to determine the polarity of English and Tamil tweets, which is therefore bilingual and it is further subjected to word sense disambiguation to figure out the contextual usage and further the sentiment of the words are classified using the Support Vector Machine which derives the polarity value of the words as positive, negative and neutral.
