Treatise in Malayalam
A treatise, the long argued piece of writing on one subject, is പ്രബന്ധം (prabandham). The word runs pra-ban-dham, stress on the first syllable, and it covers an essay, a dissertation and a bound scholarly composition equally well. University Malayalam and literary criticism both lean on it.
Binding, literary composition, essay, treatise, a paper, plan.
