Raining in Malayalam
Neither option here means raining; both describe rain coming to an end. തോരുക (thoruka) is the verb for the rain stopping and the wet drying off. Rain in progress would need a word that is not on this list.
Most common translation
Become dry, raining ends.
മഴ തോര്ന്നപ്പോള് ഞങ്ങള് പുറത്തിറങ്ങി
mazha thornnappol njangal purathirangi
When the rain stopped, we went outside.
