Hi Ong Yong Peng and Piya too.

Thanks for your encouragement. Right now, apart from
this temporary interest in the forum's archives, which
is actually helping me, to sort of "connect to the
spirit" (sorry for the mouthful)of this forum, like
now I know who those "really old timers" are in this
forum, but definitely not limited to that, I have
already started from messages #5092.

I am also trying to, "build up a refernce data base"
for Pali within my mind, so I am also finding some of
your language links useful for this purpose. You
could say that I am trying to familiarise myself with
the resources available on this fourm.

So thats where I am now.

Of course, I am browsing thro the daily lessons, but
am unable to really "chew" upon much, but sometimes I
do get caught up on some of Rett's long explainations
often involving some "language theory" behind Pali.

However, I need to say that I am no where an expert on
the thoeries, perhaps the correct word would be
'grammar', of any language, even English, so I am
learning a little at a time as I browse thro his
commentaries.

Having placed all my cards on the table, if you have
any hints or tips that you think might be of help to
me, I would most certaily appreciate.


Yours in the study of Pali,

Sukhdev
