Among all Indian languages, I think only malayalam has letter 'zha' in their alphabets. We call it 'Pazham'(meaning fruit). Vinod, I hope you understand it

I think, you have quoted a good point

I think, it's the only alphabet in Malayalam, that can't be written in Hindi. They use 'sha' for such Malayalam words, I have seen in railway station boards :woohoo:

Lemon means big one which is in yellow color

In first comment,i didn't searched for that word,just guessed it,but
later i searched and found different meaning.

Can we use Lime in place of Lemon,when we don't have lemon?
Is both same or different in taste ?
