Hello all,

In attempting to do as Nina suggests in her message below I have found
it difficult to think of or find in a grammar book, the following type
of Kammadhaaraya compound:

3) substantive+adj

I know that in English ice-cold is an example of this, but what would a
Paa.li example be? Though I have found examples for all of the other
types, I haven't had the chance of finding one for this. Any help would
be appreciated.

Additionally, I have made some corrections and clarifications to my
previous "compound cheat-sheet," and I am hoping that it will be even
more helpful now when I post the sections one by one.

Finally, after thinking back over the issue of "avijjaapaccayaa" that I
discussed in an earlier thread, I am almost positive that it is a
kammadhaaraya with a nominal case relation meaning "with (or from) the
condition which is ignorance" and not a tappurisa as I had initially
thought, so unless anyone corrects me, I will change this in my analyses.

Metta,

Alan*
