Dear Group,

I only know about 1,000 Pali words.

I believe that many Pali words are untranslatable: kamma, sati, sankhara,
anicca, dukkha, anatta, Buddha, Dhamma, Ariya-Sangha, Nibbana, papanca,
khandha, kilesa, hiri, ottappa, samvega, sila, samadhi, panna, viriya,
saddha, bhavana (mistranslated as meditation), metta, karuna, mudita,
upekkha (mistranslated as indifference - even equanimity is problematic),
vipassana, samatha, citta, punna (merit), tanha (craving), chanda (desire),
kusala, akusala, arahant, anagami, sotapanna

Would you add any more to this list?

May you be well and happy,

Antony.
