Unnecessary in Malayalam
അനാവിശ്യം (anavishyam) is the state of not being necessary, and it is the entry that answers to unnecessary here. In speech the same word covers talk that was out of line, so unnecessary words can mean improper words as much as superfluous ones. This dictionary keeps an older spelling of the vowels.
State of not being necessary, uncalled for, unnecessary, foul or impolite words.
ഇത്രയും സാധനം വാങ്ങിയത് അനാവിശ്യം ആയിരുന്നു.
ithrayum saadhanam vaangiyathu anavishyam aayirunnu.
Buying this many things was unnecessary.
