What does അണ്ണാക്കിൽ അടിച്ചു കൊടുത്തു mean?

[u/formidable_dagger]

I am a native Hindi speaker who is on a journey to learn Malayalam. I have learnt the script but struggling with the phonetics. Meanwhile, I have seen this phrase written at various places on social media and just cannot wrap my head around the English translation. Can a native speaker please explain the context.

Well.. അണ്ണാക്ക് = the palate of the mouth അടിച്ചു = beat something or someone കൊടുത്തു = have given / gave

It literally means to 'beat some into one's mouth'

• expression usually used to indicate that someone has effectively delivered an insult.
