Dear Jim and friends,
thanks. Thanks also for pointing out the synonym, ta.mkaara.naa. My
current Pali standard will make going through the comm. and sub-comm.
very tedious for me. However, I have included it in the online page.
metta,
Yong Peng

Everything you say below sounds reasonable to me. I saw in
PED 'paccayaa' listed as an adverb but I'm not sure if that would
make 'tappaccayaa' an adverb too. The sense of a cause is also one of
the usages of the ablative case so it seems to me that 'tasmaa' has
much the same meaning (because of this) as 'tappaccayaa'. If you
search 'tappaccayaati' on the cscd disk I think you'll
find 'ta.mkaara.naa' as a synonym.
