Followed in Malayalam
None of the entries listed here is a plain past tense of to follow. Closest is അനുയാത്ര (anuyathra), a noun meaning accompanying or going along with someone, so it suits following in the sense of escort or procession. A sentence such as he followed me has to be built on a verb instead.
Accompanying, followed.
അതിഥിയെ ഗേറ്റ് വരെ അനുയാത്ര ചെയ്തു
athithiye gettu vare anuyaathra cheythu
We accompanied the guest up to the gate.
All Malayalam words for “followed”
- അനുയാത്ര (anuyathra) — Accompanying, followed.
- ഓ എന്ന് (o ennu) — Whether, if; Malayalam has no separate word for this, the question particle -o is added to the verb and followed by ennu.
The other entry, ഓ എന്ന് (o ennu), is purely grammatical: it describes the question particle -o attached to a verb and followed by ennu, and has nothing to do with following a person.

No, it names the act of accompanying someone rather than the person doing it.
