I mean to say

I mean to say

Meanings, I mean to say, are not my invention. Nor the fancy of readers of Balarama
Stature. If Shri Sethu Raman has still some doubt in his mind regarding authenticity of the meanings of those five words of poem Vadiyum Methiyadium, he can consult a Malayalam Dictionary titled Shabdataravali written by Sreekanteswaram G Padmanabha Pillai. If he does not have that dictionary, photocopies of it can be airfreighted to him at his cost. Total pages would be 1172. 100% payment has to be paid in advance for this kind of Bhashasevanam. I also welcome my dear puzha readers to participate in the vocabulary test provided they have sufficient time and inclination for it.

Regarding my ability to handle Malayalam on computer, Shri Sethu Raman can well vouch this with the Editor of Puzha who generally receives all my articles on a computer-typed format in Malayalam font only.
