Sources & licence

This dictionary is built on open lexical data, with every entry linking back to its source.

Sources

• Wiktionary (via the Wiktextract project) is a primary source of headwords, meanings, romanization, etymology, and inflected forms. Licensed CC BY-SA 4.0.
• Olam, an open English–Malayalam dictionary, inverted to Malayalam headwords for breadth. Licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL).
• Wikimedia Commons provides native-speaker pronunciation recordings (Lingua Libre), used where available, under their respective free licences.
• mlmorph (Swathanthra Malayalam Computing) is the open morphology engine that generates the inflection tables and lets us resolve an inflected word to its root. Marked on each entry where used.

Licence

The word meanings come from open dictionaries and carry their source licences: Wiktionary-derived content under CC BY-SA 4.0 (attribution and share-alike) and Olam-derived content under the ODbL, exactly as they were open to us. What we've added (the curation, the generated inflection tables, and the site itself) is our own work. Please build on the open sources and add your own value rather than scraping or mirroring this site. See the methodology and the terms of use.
