意味
Moving in water
文化的背景
Swimming is often learned in 'Temple Ponds' (Ambalakkulam). It is considered a rite of passage for many village children. In the 'Below Sea Level' farming regions of Kuttanad, swimming is as natural as walking because water is everywhere. While boat racing is the main event, the ability to swim is a prerequisite for all participants for safety during the frantic races. During the heavy rains of June-July, swimming in flooded fields (paadam) is a common, albeit risky, pastime for youth.
Use with 'Ariyaam'
To say you can swim, always use the infinitive 'neenthaan' + 'ariyaam'.
Safety First
In Kerala, always ask 'Ozhukku undo?' (Is there a current?) before you 'neenthuka' in a river.
