Well-earned in Malayalam
The English well-earned is only half matched here. ആഗതം (aagatham) means income or what has come in, and the dictionary extends it to wealth honestly earned; it also means an arrival or an event. Say aagatham with a long aa at the start.
Well-earned wealth, income, arrival, an event.
ഈ മാസത്തെ ആഗതം കുറവാണ്.
ee maasathe aagatham kuravaanu.
This month's income is low.
Dictionary entry
- ആഗതം (aagatham) — Well-earned wealth, income, arrival, an event.
The word carries no praise for effort the way English well-earned does, so a well-earned rest or a well-earned victory would be phrased quite differently in Malayalam.
