Plying in Malayalam
Both entries here belong to playing, not plying. തീക്കളി (theekkali) is playing with fire, used in Malayalam just as English uses that phrase for a reckless act.
Most common translation
Plying with fire; (idm.) a dangerous experiment or action.
അത് വെറും തീക്കളിയാണ്, വേണ്ട.
athu verum theekkaliyaanu, venda.
That is just playing with fire, do not do it.
All Malayalam words for “plying”
- തീക്കളി (theekkali) — Plying with fire; (idm.) a dangerous experiment or action.
- ജോക്കര് (jokkar) — Joker, jester, buffoon, a type of plying card.
തീക്കളി (theekkali) is that idiom, and ജോക്കര് (jokkar) is the joker in a pack of playing cards, so neither word means plying a trade or a route.
Common questions
How do you say plying in Malayalam?
Not with these two. They mean playing with fire and the joker card, so a bus plying a route needs a different verb.
How is theekkali used?
As a warning. തീക്കളി (theekkali) labels a dangerous experiment or a risk someone should not be taking.
