Tulukkat

Tulukkat is a Malayalam word with no direct, commonly accepted equivalent in English. It generally refers to a situation of spontaneous or accidental good fortune, luck, or serendipity. It encompasses the idea of unexpectedly stumbling upon something beneficial or advantageous. The connotation often implies a sense of being fortunate without necessarily having actively sought or deserved the positive outcome. It's closer to a feeling of pure, unearned luck rather than skill-based success or planned achievement. The degree of unexpectedness is a significant element of the word's meaning. While "luck" is a broad translation, "Tulukkat" carries a more nuanced implication of unplanned, perhaps even undeserved, fortunate circumstances.
