Stricken in Malayalam
ആതുരന് (athuran) is a person struck down by something, whether illness, grief or worry. Say a-thu-ran. It is a noun rather than an adjective, so it names the afflicted man instead of describing a state.
Sick person, afflicted person, grief- stricken person, worried person.
ആതുരന് ആയ അയൽക്കാരനെ കാണാൻ പോയി.
athuran aaya ayalkkaarane kaanaan poyi.
I went to see the sick neighbour.
