Prose in Malayalam

Neither entry is a word for prose itself. പരാവര്‍ത്തനം (paravarthanam) is a prose rendering of a poem, a paraphrase, and അന്വയിക്കുക (anwayikkuka) is the verb for setting a poem in prose order so that its sense comes clear.

All Malayalam words for “prose”

Prose as a form of writing, as against verse, has its own Malayalam term, and it is not in this list. Both entries here describe what you do to poetry, not prose as a genre.
