Sri in Malayalam
Sri is an Indian honorific, not an English word with a Malayalam translation, and Malayalam simply uses it before names as a mark of respect. Neither entry here translates it: അദ്ധ്യാത്മരാമായണം (adhyathmaramayanam) is one of the great Hindu epics, listed because Sri Rama appears in its definition.
അദ്ധ്യാത്മരാമായണം (adhyathmaramayanam)
One of the great Hindu epics in which Sri Rama is depicted as an incarnation of Vishnu.
മുത്തശ്ശി എല്ലാ വൈകുന്നേരവും അദ്ധ്യാത്മരാമായണം വായിക്കും.
muthashi ellaa vaikunneravum adhyathmaramayanam vaayikkum.
Grandmother reads the Adhyatma Ramayana every evening.

- അദ്ധ്യാത്മരാമായണം (adhyathmaramayanam) — One of the great Hindu epics in which Sri Rama is depicted as an incarnation of Vishnu.
- അഭിമന്യു (abhimanyu) — Sri Krishna's nephew.
അഭിമന്യു (abhimanyu) is a figure from the Mahabharata, a nephew of Sri Krishna, and matches only through the honorific inside the gloss. Treat Sri as a title carried over rather than translated.
