What are some words like 'bottleneck' in Malayalam that have almost lost their literal meaning?

I have rarely heard anyone use 'bottleneck' to refer to the neck of a bottle. What are some words in Malayalam that are mostly used as metaphors now?

Excessive & dominating use of English in Malayalam nowadays by malayalis

First & foremost, kindly note that OP is not trying to becoming a language chauvinist here. It's not the matter of supporting any language imposition here. A lot of English words don't have any easy & practical words in spoken malayalam for day to day language, official worldwide terms & other situations. So it's obviously necessary to include some english words in malayalam for a better transition to understanding & use of it

But there is something much more happening than this situation under the hood. Nowadays, a lot & lot of malayalis preferably use english words even for very common & easy to use malayalam words like saying husband rather than barthaav, wife rather than bharya, problem or issue instead of prashnam & other slangs/district dialects, brother instead of chetan or aniyan, father/mother in law instead of malayalam equivalent & so on in both formal & informal contexts

So any reason for this major change in usage of malayalam?
