معنی
Calling someone using a telephone.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Kerala, it is common to call elders 'Uncle' or 'Aunty' even if they aren't related. When calling them, you would say 'Uncle-ne phon vilikku'. For Malayalis living abroad (Gulf, Europe, US), 'phon vilikkuka' is a daily ritual to stay connected with parents in Kerala. When calling a business in Kerala, it is polite to start with 'Namaskaram' before stating the purpose of the call. Even with digital invites, a personal phone call is expected from the bride or groom's family to close relatives.
Drop the 'Phone'
In casual conversation, you can just say 'Njan vilikkam' (I will call). Everyone will know you mean the phone.
Object Marker
Don't forget to add '-e' to the person's name. 'Raman vilikkuka' means Raman is calling, not you are calling Raman.
