Quickly in Malayalam
Quickly is ശീഘ്രം (sheeghram), the Sanskrit adverb that newsreaders and officials prefer, as in the matter will be settled quickly. The long ee is held and the gh is breathy. ക്ഷിപ്രം (kshipram) is the close literary twin, a shade more sudden in feel.
Quickly, swiftly, speedily.
നീ ശീഘ്രം വീട്ടിലേക്ക് വരൂ.
nee sheeghram veettilekku varoo.
Come home quickly.
