Descrição
English uses separate little words for suggestions and guesses: let's, maybe, must be, should, should have. English speakers try to translate each one word by word, for example "let us go" as ഞങ്ങളെ പോകാൻ അനുവദിക്കൂ (njangale pokaan anuvadikkoo), which actually means "allow us to go", like a request to a guard. In Malayalam, these meanings mostly come from verb endings again. In this episode: • Let's: namukku ... -aam • Soft suggestions: -aalo and -aamallo • Maybe and must be: aayirikkum • Should: -anam • Should have: -aamaayirunnu and -anamaayirunnu • Language bridge • Practice • Self-check questions with answers Key phrases from this episode: നമുക്ക് പോകാം (namukku pokaam) = let's go നമുക്ക് കഴിക്കാം (namukku kazhikkaam) = let's eat നമുക്ക് നോക്കാം (namukku nokkaam) = let's see നമുക്ക് പിന്നെ സംസാരിക്കാം (namukku pinne samsaarikkaam) = let's talk later നമുക്ക് ഒരുമിച്ച് ചെയ്യാം (namukku orumichu cheyyaam) = let's do it together നമുക്ക് പോയാലോ?
