Fancy in Malayalam
Fancy as idle imagining is പകല്ക്കിനാവ് (pakalkkinaav), literally a daydream, since pakal is daytime and kinaav a dream. Say pa-kalk-ki-naav. It is vivid and slightly wry, used much as English says castles in the air.
Day-dream, fancy, 'building castles in the air'.
ക്ലാസിൽ ഇരുന്ന് പകല്ക്കിനാവ് കാണരുത്.
klaasil irunnu pakalkkinaavu kaanaruthu.
Do not day-dream while sitting in class.
