 I was hoping this thread could serve to expand our Thamizh vocabulary, personally I would benefit a lot from it. For instance, I would like to know the Thamizh equivalent for "irony".

Hi,
The possible translation for VASEEGARA would be ENTICER. That's the only possible meaning for it.

Most of the words asked here are covered in the tamil thesaurus published by the department of official languages. I have seen the thesaurus for law, medicine, IT. Another good source is the school textbooks given each year, some even include have very good glosories.
