Dear friends,

this week, the word is tesa.m.

Tesa.m is the dative/genitive case of ta in the masculine/neuter
gender: to/for them (dat.), their (gen.).

I am having difficulty with the word 'keci'. Please help up. Thanks.

DN2 Samaññaphala Sutta CSCD171/PTS1.55

Tesa.m tuccha.m musaa vilaapo ye keci atthikavaada.m vadanti.

tuccha (adj.) empty, vain, deserted.
musaa (ind.) falsehood, lie.
vilaapa (m.) wailing, idle talk.
ye (rel. pron. n/m plural) who/what.
*keci ???
atthikavaada.m = atthika+vaada: seeking for
vadati (v.) speaks, says, tells.

*Words with the interrogative base 'ci' includes koci (whoever),
kiñci (whatever), kadaaci (at some time or any time), etc.

I look forward to your suggestions and comments.

metta,
Yong Peng
