Whip in Malayalam
The entry here is the verb, ചാട്ടയ്ക്കടിക്കുക (chaattaykkadikkuka), to whip or lash, built from the word for a lash plus the verb for striking. Say chaattaykkadikkuka with a long aa and a doubled k. It is used of beating an animal or a person with a lash.
ചാട്ടയ്ക്കടിക്കുക (chaattaykkadikkuka)
Whip, lash.
വീട്ടിലെ മൃഗങ്ങളെ ഞങ്ങൾ ചാട്ടയ്ക്കടിക്കുകയില്ല.
veettile mrugangale njangal chaattaykkadikkukayilla
We do not whip the animals at home.
