In my childhood, I had read in Balarama, how the popular malayalam word 'എമണ്ടൻ' originated from the SMS Emden of Germany during WWII. Very recently we got a new word in malayalam and wow... we are also able to pinpoint the exact moment of its origin.
The word is 'kummanadi' (കുമ്മനടി).
It is defined as the act of traveling without a valid ticket in public transport. It can also be used for attending an event without an invitation.
eg. Kummanadi should be discouraged to make the public transport companies profitable.
അപ്പുറത്തെ വീട്ടിലെ കല്യാണത്തിന് നമ്മളെ വിളിച്ചിട്ടില്ല, നമുക്ക് കുമ്മനടിച്ചാലോ ?
