അസന്തുഷ്ട (asanthushta) is an adjective stem rather than a finished word, so it combines with endings or with a noun, and in speech people more often say plainly that someone is not happy.

Common questions

How do you say dissatisfied in Malayalam?

Use അസന്തുഷ്ട (asanthushta) for dissatisfied or discontented.

What does the a at the start do?

It is the Sanskrit negative prefix, so the word is literally not-satisfied; the same prefix turns many Malayalam adjectives into their opposites.
