Dear James, Yong and Dipa

Thank you for your kind feedback on khajjasi and for some rules. I
will start applying to myself to the structural basics and not pester
you with such questions that can be answered by a basic knowledge. It's
really exciting to be launching on a new language for the first time in
some years - especially one that is exclusively connected with a better
understanding of the Dhamma.


I'm looking forward to going to India someday and trying out my Pali
in the local markets! (haha - just joking.)
