Pierce in Malayalam
To pierce something, to bore a hole through it, is തുളയ്ക്കുക (thulaykkuka). Say thu-layk-ku-ka. It is the word for piercing an ear as much as for drilling through a wall.

All Malayalam words for “pierce”
- തുളയ്ക്കുക (thulaykkuka) — Bore a hole, pierce.
- കിഴിക്കുക (kizhikkuka) — Pierce, bore, make a hole, subtract, lessen, deduct.
കിഴിക്കുക (kizhikkuka) covers the same action but also means to subtract or reduce, so thulaykkuka is the cleaner choice when you mean a hole.
