Dear Rahula,

I am unable to follow this thread very well because your post comes
through on my email server with undecipheriable characters for the
pali letters with diacritics.

>The phrase: sotthibh±vo mahat±

Could you please make your posts using the Velthuis scheme?
e.g. The phrase: sotthibhaavo mahataa

Thank you. I think many others would have issue with this too.

With metta, John
