Dear Friends,

Sounds like a challenge... I'm not sure, but I have some idea...
here's some suggestions:

> Pa.ticca kaara.na.m ta.m ta.m, entiiti paccayaatha vaa;
> Due to this and that action, the suffix now [is] "enti" or;

in the CSCD, it reads "paccayaa tha vaa", and I wonder if this is
meaning to give two examples of different paccaya, viz "enti" and
"tha". I've never seen a word like paccayaatha.

> Pa.ticca saddanipphatti, ito etiiti paccayaa.
> due to the word-ending, now "eti" [is] the suffix.

saddanipphatti might mean "perfection (ie adjustment) of sound"?

> Naamika-p-paccayaana.m yo, vibhaago aavi hessati;
> The division, which [belongs to] the verbal suffix by name, will [soon] be evident;

naamikappaccaya - the suffixes of naamika? aavi hessati might just
mean "will be made clear". Here I would guess, "What (yo)
classification is the classification of the suffixes of naamika, that
classification will be made clear."

> Naamakappe yato tasmaa, na ta.m vitthaara-y-aamase.
> in the noun proper since therefore, not it the expansion (I) handle.

Something like "from that which is in the resemblance of naama, such
we should not expand upon. (vitthaarayaamase I take as a pa~ncami
verb, vitthaarayaamhase)?


> Yo novikara.naana.m tu, paccayaana.m vibhaagato;
> Now, [that] which [belongs to] novikaranas, from the division of verbal suffixes;

I would bet it is "yo no vikara.naana.m", thus something like "but
rather what is not belonging to alterations, what belongs to the
classification of suffixes"

> So panaakhyaatakappamhi, vitthaarenaa'gamissatiiti.
> in the verb proper, it will however go[/come] with the [full] expansion (in detail).

maybe - That, rather, which indeed is in the resemblance of a verb,
will go through expansion (will be expanded upon?).

> Iccaanekavidhesu paccayesu "vikara.napaccayaa naama ime"ti sallakkhetabbaa.
> Among the various forms (of) verbal suffixes, "these known as vikarana verbal suffixes" should be understood thus.

maybe - Thus, in regards to the manifold suffixes, the words "these
are called 'suffixes of alterations" should be cleared up.

Cheers,
