What’s a Tamil word you love but can’t fully explain in English?
Tamil has so many words that don’t translate properly into English.
For example, words like “அறம்” (not just “virtue,” but a way of living with moral balance) or “அழகு” (more than beauty, a sense of grace and harmony) feel hard to explain fully.
