Duolingo India seems active on Instagram - the more comments they see asking for Malayalam, the more they may think about it🤔

Not a Malayali speaker. In many Malayalam movies I’ve noticed that the speaker refers to the possessions of the person he’s taking to in 3rd person instead of 2nd person. For eg: Instead of saying “Let’s go to your house”, he says “Let’s go to Tom’s house” when he is speaking to Tom. Is it how colloquial Malayalam is?

I created a video detailing the way to write all Malayalam Alphabets including ~60 Koottaksharangal (Ligatures/compound consonants). All letters are animated beautifully programmatically.
Usually in most learning videos on Youtube, ligatures are ignored.
Pronunciation for all letters are also included.
Please give feedback on the video or what you would like to see in a future video.

What is the Malayalam equivalent for where in Tamil you add -ē for emphasis? (Emphasises "never") edhirpaaththadhilla -> edhirpaaththadhē illa nadandhadhilla -> nadandhadhē illa panninadhilla -> panninadhē illa cheythittilla -> ?

What is the right way to learn Malayalam? Other than watching movies? I can understand Malayalam but i just can't speak for some reason.

And how would you use both in example sentences?

In many Kerala villages, the word "മറ്റം" (Mattom/Mattam) is amalgamated with the other word. Examples like:

• Chathamattom (ചാത്തമറ്റം),
• Moolamattom (മൂലമറ്റം),
• Nellimattom (നെല്ലിമറ്റം)
• Paimattom (പൈമറ്റം)
• Pattimattom (പട്ടിമറ്റം),
• Punnamattom (പുന്നമറ്റം)
• Palamattom (പാലമറ്റം).

This is my list from the Ernakulam district (credit goes to my Acchan). Also when I searched it up on Google, I found:

• Mattom (മറ്റം) in Thrissur and Alappuzha district (verifiable?)

When I searched for its meaning, I got the meaning "place," "locality," etc., but I didn't find it satisfactory. So, I would like to confirm with you because I'm a Pravasi Malyali kid, and my parents don't know its meaning.

Anyone know the best book stores in Kochi to get annotated/study guide editions of old Malayalam texts like Unnuneeli Sandesham, Unniyachi Charitham, Kuchelavritham etc? There are some copies online but they’re very hard to read. I also don’t think they can be found in normal mainstream book stores.

I just need help with this word, does anyone know why this thing is? I read it in a stroy and I can't seem to picture this in my mind.

I speak tamil and im mostly surrounded by malayalis so although i have a basic idea of whats supposed to be said im not completely fluent in it. Any suggestions on how i can begin speaking malayalam properly ?
