Re: Pali Day by Day G000 - The New Pali Course Part II

Dear George,

thanks for your comments. My Part III is sitting in my library back in
Singapore, while I am currently working in Australia. I promise to
check it out when I am back for Chinese New Year next year.

If the examples are useful, we can definitely discuss them on the
list. What I meant was that, as I recall there isn't any prescribed
exercises in Part III, there is no point running a Pali Day by Day
series for it.

metta,
Yong Peng.

Buddhadatta's New Pali Course Part III. It has 21 'example groups'
distributed over the first five chapters. Though they are not called
'exercises', they could easily be treated that way (Pali to English;
no English to Pali). All the examples are taken from the Canon with
references, illustrate the points raised in the text, and are
(presumably) more advanced than the corresponding exercises in Parts I
or II.
