| 2009-06-13 | Richard | 10 | 8 | 4 | 10 | No | Thanks, Sindh for the good work. I am hoping you can give me a literal translation of Malayalam MANJAKANNI. In other words, perhaps MANJA and KANNI? Since you know Malayalam, is there a word TAILUVA? I ran across it some some time ago but was unable to translate it. Thanks again. |

I am from Kerala State in India, and I can answer most questions regarding the Culture of Kerala and Malaylam language and literature. I can also answer questions about Hindi literature and a pan-Indian culture to some extent
Experience
I have studied Hindi formally for 7 years and now, in Hyderabad where I work , teaching English, I have had to communicate in Hindi outside of the university.

I have done a number of translations from Hini and Malayalam to English and vice versa.
