study books

Dear Dan, nice to see you here. Personally I like Warder, because you come
to reading texts very soon, applying the grammar. Wihout grammar we shall
twist meanings. There is a grammatical index, and I do not mind to go
through the book to find what I am looking for, it is a way of reviewing. I
agree it may not be so systematical. Greek will help with the verbs and also
the abl absolute will not be a problem for you. Although I am not the
teacher here, if I can help with Warder, it is an opportunity for me to
review. But I am sure you manage.Watch out for sandhi's but you get used to
it. Jim, when he has access again to his library, can give you all the fine
points. For reading the Buddhadatta dict is so handy to get on with your
reading, looking up words quickly, and when you need more info the PTS dict
is good. When reading I jot down the words that I do not know or have
forgotten, as a way to memorize.
Success with your studies. By the way, you will have to do with subject/
object :-)  With appreciation, Nina.
Hallo Robert, I looked up: sukkha means dry and sukha is happines, although
there is an example kaayika sukkha with two k's to my surprise.
