His in Malayalam
His is അവന്റെ (avante), the possessive of the pronoun for he. The nte is one sound, so it comes out a-van-te. Note that this is the familiar form, used of boys, friends and equals rather than elders.
Most common translation
His.
അവന്റെ വീട് അടുത്താണ്.
avante veedu aduthaanu.
His house is nearby.
