Espionage in Malayalam
Espionage translates as ചാരവൃത്തി (chaaravrithi), literally the occupation of a spy. Pronounce it chaa-ra-vri-thi; it reads as formal and is the word newspapers use for spying cases and secret intelligence work. The same term covers the general activity rather than a single act of spying.
