Matter in Malayalam
Matter in the sense of substance is ദ്രവ്യം (dravyam) in Malayalam, the physical stuff things consist of. Science writing uses it against the word for energy. Matter in the sense of an affair or issue is quite different and is carried by അടിയന്തിരം (adiyanthiram) and its relatives only in particular contexts.
Matter, substance, wealth, gold, bell-metal, medicine, liquor.
എല്ലാ ദ്രവ്യത്തിനും ഭാരമുണ്ട്.
ella dravyathinum bhaaramundu.
All matter has weight.
