Dear Nina,

personally I don't think it is necessary to "repost" the answers unless there will be significant discussions on top of our previous postings.

Members and viewers who like to look up earlier messages can either use the message archive [1] or message thread history [2].

Yahoo! users should be familiar with these but I will just remind:

[1] message archive: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Pali/messages
[2] message thread history: click on any message, and scroll down to the bottom of the page

Alternatively, a book structure set of links can be found here: http://www.tipitaka.net/pali/synthesis/pali3.00.cdv

Referring to your post, the two messages containing the original postings are here:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Pali/message/15091
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Pali/message/15104

I note that I did not answer questions 9 and 18, which were left open. I believe you took up the challenge and provided your answers in subsequent posts. I also recall we have some ensuing discussion on question 18.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Pali/message/15108

For future exercises, I will be grouping the questions and glossaries together, to address your concern of puzzled faces and minds, and also in a way spread the questions over more postings. I will leave two questions, instead of one, open to members. The idea is not only to generate some discussion, but also allow others to have direct contribution to the online learning of Pali. I will keep it at two now, but may increase the number if we see better response, or if there is a direct request from a member to do the hard work. ;-)

metta,
Yong Peng.

I tried to look up the sentences referred to, but could not find anymore 7-9, 18. I render now from 10 in order to help those who did not do these exercises.
