    Hai Aasma,

    Congrats on your marriage. Learning malayalam is very easy. Try to follow malayalam channels especially news channels like manorama news, Reporter, PeopleTV. It will be a bit easy for you.

    You can see it in youtube!

    Looks like you are proceeding in the right direction, prioritizing the relevance out of irrelevant things. Good going!

    Just tell her that "ummakku sukamalle?".. Mean wether she is doing well. Just 2-3 words in malyam in the first meet... But in casual way..Thats enough to win people heart..

    This may help to familarise the words. There are lots of words in kannada used in malayalam also... Learn Malayalam online

    write it down some one of the commonly used words (how are you, how is your health) and memorize it the first time..later on try to pickup slowly... by watching movies, watching news or watching kids shows...
