Shapeless in Malayalam
Malayalam reaches for അമൂര്ത്തം (amoortham) when a thing has no form at all. It is a Sanskrit borrowing built on the word for form with a negative prefix, and it shows up in writing and in religious talk about the formless divine far more than in street speech.
Most common translation
