Base in Malayalam

അടിസ്ഥാന (adisthaana) is what forms the base of something, basic and fundamental, and it stands before the noun as in basic facilities. It is built from adi, the bottom, so the image is of what lies underneath. A different noun names the base of a tree or a mountain, and yet another covers base in the moral sense.
