Te comparto mis pensamientos sobre ir a un hospital en estos días. Evitalo a toda costa.

Evita los hospitales

Plants and trees in Malayalam — the coconut, the mango, the jackfruit, the homestead garden every Kerala house sits inside, and one of the most elegant word patterns in the language.

I am Dr. Reshmi R. Nair, an applied linguist from Kerala. I have taught hundreds of learners to speak Malayalam as it is actually spoken.

THE LAND AROUND THE HOUSE
പറമ്പ് - parambu - not a lawn and not a garden: the working farm the house sits in
A traditional പറമ്പ് grows food in vertical layers — coconut on top, jackfruit and mango at middle height, pepper vines up the trunks, banana and tapioca at ground level, tubers underneath. Agricultural scientists call it a homegarden, and Kerala's version is studied worldwide as one of the most species-dense examples anywhere. One household plot can carry forty useful plants.

THE PATTERN: THE TREE AND THE FRUIT ARE DIFFERENT WORDS
English builds the tree from the fruit — mango, mango tree. Malayalam keeps two separate roots.
തെങ്ങ് - thengu - coconut palm
തേങ്ങ - thenga - the coconut
മാവ് - maavu - mango tree
മാങ്ങ - maanga - the mango
പ്ലാവ് - plaavu - jackfruit tree
ചക്ക - chakka - the jackfruit
കവുങ്ങ് - kavungu - areca palm
അടയ്ക്ക - adaykka - the areca nut
വാഴ - vaazha - banana plant
ഏത്തയ്ക്ക - ethaykka - the cooking banana
A language keeps two separate roots only for things its speakers have handled for a very long time.

THE COCONUT, WHICH IN KERALA IS AN ECONOMY
കരിക്ക് - karikku - the tender green drinking coconut. Ask for തേങ്ങ and you will be handed something you cannot drink.
കൊപ്ര - kopra - the dried kernel sold for oil
ചകിരി - chakiri - the husk, from which coir is made
ഓല - ola - the palm frond that roofed houses for centuries

RIPENING
മൂക്കുക - mookkuka - to mature while still green
പഴുക്കുക - pazhukkuka - to ripen, to turn sweet
ഈ മാങ്ങ പഴുത്തോ? - ee maanga pazhuttho? - has this mango ripened?

Which of these trees grows where you live? Comment below.
