There will also be a little bit of Kannur Slang when I type in Malayalam as that is my Native language. It will be a little bit difficult to read or understand the Words as in kerala, the slangs and words differ from District to District. I will try my best to type it in proper Malayalam but in some situations when the story take's place in my hometown, then I am compelled to write it in Kannur slang😊

All these are basic terms that I use to address my family members and other people. There are more terms but it's not used much often. If it is used then I will be giving the meaning.Ā
