Does in Malayalam
ചെയ്യുന്നു (cheyyunnu) is does, or is doing, the present form of the verb to do. Malayalam keeps one form for every person, so he does, they do and I do are all this single word, with no third-person s to remember. The other English does, the helper in questions, has no separate word at all.
Does, is doing (present form of the verb cheyyuka, to do; Malayalam uses one form for all persons).
അവൻ ദിവസവും ജോലി ചെയ്യുന്നു.
