Unemotional in Malayalam
യാന്ത്രിക (yaanthrika) means mechanical, and Malayalam leans on that image where English says unemotional: someone who answers like a machine, with nothing behind the words. It is an adjective that stands before its noun and belongs to written and formal speech. No single native word matches the English one exactly, so this metaphor does the work.
