설명
Malayalam has a passive, but in conversation it prefers other ways to say something happened without naming who did it. This class covers four mechanisms. The formal -പ്പെടുക passive of newspapers and documents; intransitive verb pairs, so ഗ്ലാസ് പൊട്ടി (the glass broke) rather than ഞാൻ ഗ്ലാസ് പൊട്ടിച്ചു (I broke the glass); the impersonal -ണം, which states a requirement with no 'you' in it; and the dative of the affected person, as in എനിക്ക് തെറ്റി, it went wrong for me. Then the completive -പോയി, and how to admit a small mistake the Kerala way. Words and phrases in this class: മോഷ്ടിക്കപ്പെട്ടു (moshtikkappettu) – was stolen എന്റെ ഫോൺ പോയി (ente phone poyi) – my phone is gone ഞാൻ ഗ്ലാസ് പൊട്ടിച്ചു (njaan glass pottichu) – I broke the glass ഗ്ലാസ് പൊട്ടി (glass potti) – the glass broke കറന്റ് പോയി (current poyi) – the power went പൈസ തീർന്നു (paisa theernnu) – the money ran out ഇത് ചെയ്യണം (ithu cheyyanam) – this needs doing ഇവിടെ ഒപ്പിടണം (ivide oppidanam) – it must be signed here എനിക്ക് തെറ്റി (enikku thetti) – I made a mistake എനിക്ക് മറന്നുപോയി (enikku marannupoyi) – I forgot എനിക്ക് വൈകിപ്പോയി (enikku vaikippoyi) – I was late എനിക്ക് ദേഷ്യം വന്നു (enikku deshyam vannu) – I got angry ഞാൻ പറഞ്ഞുപോയി (njaan paranjupoyi) – I let it slip In this class: • The formal -പ്പെടുക passive, and why conversation avoids it • Transitive and intransitive pairs: who broke it versus it broke • The impersonal -ണം and the dative of the affected person • The completive -പോയി, and admitting a mistake the local way Quizzes below.
