Dear Pali community,

Excel 4 and 5 limit the numbers of rows to 16384. I have thus inadvertently
left out the last part of Buddhadatta' Pali-English Dict. that I have
uploaded on the site. So here is it again, complete, as a tab-separated
text file, at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Pali/files/dictionaries/

I have opted again for the Velthuis scheme of translitteration, but the
nasal velar character n overdot ("n in the Velthuis scheme) has been
rendered simply as n. After all, it only appears before k(h) and g(h), and
it is the only nasal before these gutturals. Consequently, there is no loss
of information in proceeding in this way.

Some errors have also been corrected :

In the Dict. it should be:
accharaasa"nghaata, not accharaasa.nghaata
attaa, not atta
u.nhiisa, not unhiisa
kaamapa"nka, not kaamapa.nka
the waning moon fortnight (from full to new moon), for kaa.lapakkha, not
the moonless fortnight
catura"nginii, not caturanginii
catutthii, not cattutthii
.ta"nka, not .tanka
bhikkhunii, not bhikkhu.nii
muti"nga and mudi"nga, not muti.nga and mudi.nga
the waxing moon fortnight (from new to full moon), for sukkapakkha, not the
bright half of a month
plants and animals: it should be uppercase for the Genus name, lowercase
for the species name (not systematically corrected)


Main typing errors in the original electronic version, corrected by me:

double (and wrong) entries suppressed for
sa.myojana ; seven compound words with katha.m ; cha.la.msa

ñ (tilde n) problems solved for a dozen words

it's
ta.nhiiyi, dentavida.msaka, braahma.nakaññaa, bhi.msana(ka), la"nghaapeti,
laapuka.taaha, bhu.m+kar+o for bhu"nkaroti, vi + lagh + .m + a and vi +
lagh + .m + e for vila"nghati and vila"ngheti, samukka.mseti etc.

it's Nauclea cordifolia for kadamba, not Cordiforlia.
