Kumasulira zolemba kuchokera m'Chichewa kupita ku Chimalayalamu (Malayalam), chomwe ndi chilankhulo chomwe chimalankhulidwa kwambiri m'boma la Kerala ku India, ndi ntchito yomwe imafuna chidziwitso chozama cha zilankhulo ziwirizi. Ngakhale kuti zilankhulazi zimachokera m'mabanja osiyana kwambiri—Chichewa chikupezeka m'gulu la zilankhulo za Bantu (Niger-Congo) ndipo Chimalayalamu chili m'gulu la zilankhulo za Dravidian—pali njira zambiri zomwe zingathandize omasulira kuti agwire ntchito yawo mwaluso popanda kutaya tanthauzo loyambirira la zolembazo. Nkhaniyi ifotokoza zambiri za kapangidwe kake, zovuta zomwe zimakhalapo, ndikupereka malangizo othandiza kwa omasulira.
Kapangidwe ka Ziganizo: Kusiyana kwa SVO ndi SOV
Chimodzi mwazinthu zazikulu zomwe womasulira ayenera kuzizindikira ndicho kapangidwe ka ziganizo. Mu Chichewa, timagwiritsa ntchito dongosolo la Subject-Verb-Object (SVO).

Mwachitsanzo, mu Chichewa timati: "Mtsikana (S) wamwa (V) madzi (O)."
Koma mu Chimalayalamu, dongosolo limene amagwiritsa ntchito ndi la Subject-Object-Verb (SOV). Chiganizo chofanana ndi chomwe chili pamwambapa chidzaoneka motere: "Mtsikana (S) madzi (O) wamwa (V)." Ngati womasulira sasamalira mfundo imeneyi, akhoza kumasulira zinthu motengera Chichewa ndipo ziganizo za Chimalayalamu sizingakhale zomveka kapena zachibadwidwe kwa olankhula chilankhulacho. Kuti munthu athe kumasulira bwino, ayenera kakhala ndi luso lotha kusinthasintha dongosolo la mawu mu chiganizo kuti zigwirizane ndi malamulo a galamala ya Chimalayalamu.
Agglutination ndi Mapangidwe a Mawu
Zilankhulo zonse ziwirizi, Chichewa ndi Chimalayalamu, ndizophatikiza mawu (agglutinative languages), koma zimachita izi m'njira zosiyana kwambiri. Mu Chichewa, mapangidwe a mawu amachitika powonjezera ma prefix (zoyambirira) ku muzi wa mawu. Mwachitsanzo, pa mawu akuti "chinthu" kapena "zinthu," kusintha kumachitika kumayambiriro kwa mawu.

Nthawi zambiri, mawu amodzi a Chimalayalamu akhoza kukhala ndi tanthauzo la chiganizo chonse chifukwa cha mapeto ambiri omwe awonjezedwapo. Kusamala kwambiri kumafunika podziwa momwe ma suffix a Chimalayalamu amsonyezera ubale pakati pa mawu (noun cases), monga dative, accusative, locative, ndi zina zotero. Omasulira ayenera kkhala aluso kwambiri pakusanthula mawu ovuta kwambiri a Chimalayalamu kuti adziwe momwe angawamasulire mu Chichewa pogwiritsa ntchito ma prefix ndi ma preposition oyenera.
Mgwirizano wa Maina ndi Magulu a Maina (Noun Classes vs Gender/Case Suffixes)

Mwachitsanzo, chinthu chomwe chili m'gulu la zinthu zopanda moyo mu Chichewa chitha kukhala ndi matchulidwe osiyana malingana ndi kapangidwe kake mu Chimalayalamu. Chimalayalamu chilinso ndi njira zosonyezera ulemu polankhula (honorifics), zomwe ndizofunika kwambiri m'chikhalidwe cha ku Kerala. Omasulira ayenera kusankha matchulidwe oyenera otengera msinkhu, udindo, kapena ubale wa anthu omwe akuphatikizidwa m'zolembedwazo, mofanana ndi momwe mu Chichewa timagwiritsira ntchito "inu" m'malo mwa "iwe" posonyeza ulemu.
Kumasulira Kwachikhalidwe: Kerala ndi Malawi/Zambia
Kumasulira sikumangokhala kusintha mawu kuchoka ku chilankhulo chimodzi kupita ku china; ndiko kulumikiza zikhalidwe ziwiri. Chikhalidwe cha anthu olankhula Chichewa ku Malawi, Zambia, ndi Mozambique chili ndi miyambo yake, zakudya zake, ndi njira zolankhulira zomwe sizipezeka ku Kerala, India, komwe amalankhula Chimalayalamu.

Omasulira ayenera kugwiritsa ntchito njira yotchedwa "transcreation" kapena kufotokoza tanthauzo la mawuwo m'malo mowamasulira liwu ndi liwu. Kufotokoza mwachidule m'mabokosi kapena m'mawu a m'mbali (footnotes) kungakhale njira yabwino yothandizira owerenga a Chimalayalamu kumvetsetsa zinthu zachikhalidwe cha ku Africa. Mofananamo, zinthu zachikhalidwe cha ku Kerala monga "Sadya," "Kathakali," kapena zikondwerero monga "Onam," ziyenera kufotokozedwa bwino mu Chichewa kuti owerenga a ku Malawi athe kuzimvetsa bwino popanda kusokonezeka chifukwa cha kusiyana kwa zikhalidwe.
