Advisor in Malayalam
No general word for advisor appears on this list. മന്ത്രി (manthri) is the king's counsellor of older usage and the government minister of today, so it names an office rather than anyone who gives advice. Calling a consultant by this word would misfire badly in modern Kerala, where it means a cabinet minister.
King's advisor, minister, member of a cabinet.
മന്ത്രി ഇന്ന് സ്കൂൾ സന്ദർശിച്ചു.
manthri innu school sandarshichu.
The minister visited the school today.
Dictionary entry
- മന്ത്രി (manthri) — King's advisor, minister, member of a cabinet.
Since this is the only entry, an everyday advisor would have to be described with a phrase about giving advice rather than with this title.
