Did you know?

  • While സംഭാഷണം is the standard term for 'dialogue', a common way to describe a casual chat or gossip is വെറുതെ വർത്തമാനം (veruthe varthamanam), which literally translates to 'useless talk'.
  • The prefix സം in സംഭാഷണം implies a 'joining together', suggesting that a dialogue is not just speaking but a collective union of voices.
  • In ancient Sanskrit-influenced Malayalam texts, സംഭാഷണം could describe a divine discourse between a deity and a devotee, elevating the word beyond human interaction.

Examples in context

  • ആ സിനിമയിലെ സംഭാഷണം വളരെ നന്നായിരുന്നു.
    aa cinimayile sambhashanam valare nannayirunnu.
    The dialogue in that movie was very good.
  • ഇത് ഒരു രസകരമായ സംഭാഷണം ആണ്.
    ithu oru rasakaramaya sambhashanam aanu.
    This is an interesting conversation.
