Lecturer in Malayalam
The Malayalam word offered for lecturer is പ്രസംഗകന് (prasamgakan), literally one who delivers a speech. Its close twin പ്രാസംഗികന് (praasamgikan) means the same thing in a more Sanskritic register. Both point to a speaker before an audience rather than to a teaching post at a college.
