Scrutiny in Malayalam
The closest entry here is പരീക്ഷ (pareeksha), which covers a test, an examination or a trial rather than the close critical look that scrutiny carries in English. Read it as inspection in the sense of an examiner going over a candidate; it is a common Sanskrit loan and nobody will misunderstand it.
Test, examination, trial or deal, scrutiny.
നാളെ കണക്ക് പരീക്ഷയാണ്.
naale kanakku pareekshayaanu.
Tomorrow is the maths exam.
All Malayalam words for “scrutiny”
- പരീക്ഷ (pareeksha) — Test, examination, trial or deal, scrutiny.
- പൂരായം (poorayam) — Jocular talk, nonsense, falsehood, curiosity, probe, scrutiny, close investigation.
- ദൃഷ്ടിദോഷം (drushtidosham) — Faulty scrutiny, error in observation, effect of 'evil eye'.
poorayam is listed for probe and close investigation, but its first meanings are idle talk and curiosity, so it reads oddly as a translation; drushtidosham is narrower still, naming a fault in observation or the effect of the evil eye.
Common questions
How do you say scrutiny in Malayalam?
There is no exact one-word match in these entries. പരീക്ഷ (pareeksha) is the usual choice when scrutiny means an examination or a test.
Does Malayalam have a word for close inspection?
It builds one on pareeksha with a qualifier for closeness; the other entries here, poorayam and drushtidosham, carry quite different meanings first.
