Is arranged marriage in Kerala possible for someone like me who doesn't know how to speak Malayalam?
I'm a 27-year-old guy with roots in Kerala, currently living in another state with a decent salary. I'm a Syro-Malabar Catholic. MAJOR PROBLEM: My biggest minus is that I can speak only English. My Malayalam speaking skills are non-existent. I can't string together a coherent sentence in Malayalam. I had a learning disability at a young age and my brain picked up only one language. I tried and tried really hard to learn other languages but I can't learn to speak without getting ridiculed at. I tried learning Malayalam through online classes, speaking with fellow speakers, watching movies, but nothing worked out. I find it really hard to learn a new language at this stage of life. I come from a middle-class family, and we don't have much in terms of inheritance except for a 2BHK apartment where I live with my parents. I also don't own a car. I'm looking to start a nuclear family after marriage, and I'm wondering how my chances are in the Kerala Christian marriage market. So, Redditors, what are my chances? Can I find a suitable partner through arranged marriage? I'd appreciate any advice or insights from people familiar with the Kerala Christian marriage scene.5
