Re: Pali Day by Day 1/11/2005 [D090]

Hi

I believe "Aavuso" in 14 should be plural ("Friends") because the
verb ("ti.t.thatha") is plural.

I placed 15 in the imperative/benedictive mood (only because that
was one of the lessons for this chapter): "Venerable Sir, let's ask
the monk the question."

Thanks.

Charles
