What is the English meaning of Malayalam word arivillayma?

The Malayalam word "arivillayma" doesn't have a direct equivalent in English. It's a combination of two words:

* Ariv - meaning "knowledge" or "wisdom"

* Illayma - meaning "isn't it?" or "doesn't it?"

So, "arivillayma" roughly translates to "Isn't it knowledge?" or "Isn't it wise?"

The word is often used in a rhetorical or emphatic way, to express that something is obvious or self-evident, and often has a slightly sarcastic or ironic tone.

Here are some possible English translations, depending on context:

* You know...

* Isn't it clear...

* Don't you see...

* Obviously...

* It's common sense...

The best way to understand the meaning of "arivillayma" is to look at the context in which it is used.
