Deflection means “விலகல்” (vilagal) in
Tamil — the act or result of deviating, bending, or changing
direction from an original path or position.
Reflection in Tamil is most commonly translated as
“பிரதிபலிப்பு” (prathipalippu) for the
physical sense, and “பிம்பம்”,
“நினைவு”, “சிந்தனை”, or
“அகஆய்வு” for other meanings like image, thought, or
contemplation.
Recollection in Tamil is most commonly expressed as
“நினைவு”, “ஞாபகம்”,
“நினைவாற்றல்”, or
“நினைத்துப்பார்த்தல்”
depending on the sense—memory, act of remembering, or something
recalled.
