Dear Florent,

This is an old message of yours, but I was just catching up on some
"buried" emails in my inbox, and noticed that there appears to be an
error in one of these sentences:

11.Pubbe Saavatthinagare manussaana.m satta ko.tiyo vasi.msu.
[in] east / [in] city of Saavatthi / [of] people / 7 / crores / lived
Seven crores of people lived in the eastern part of Saavatthi.

"Pubbe" means "formerly", or "in the past". Perhaps you're confusing
it with "puratthima" which means "eastern"?
Thus: "Formerly seven crores of people lived in Saavatthi."

With metta,
John
