Re: se.t.tho -- derivation 5

Dear Jim,
Thank you for all the other texts, nibbacana, I will study more. Meanwhile a
few questions:
Action noun and agent noun. I still find it difficult to know the
difference.
Then the last sentence : abhivandiya, you have: having saluted, but I
thought: should be saluted, as in Karaniya (Mettaa Sutta), and Warder. I
noticed it just before going away, but meanwhile you may have dealt with
this?
Nina.
