Emne: [palistudy] Burmese Kacc.? Thai pub. Mon Grammar?


Hello,

I have two questions about publications:

(1) This may seem rather obvious, but I realized today that I do not have
any publication data for any Burmese edition(s) of Kacc.  As I'll soon have
a Thai edition to balance my exposure to Sinhalese and Lao sources, I should

probably start looking for a Burmese edition of some kind.  There are a
surprising number of catalogued Burmese MS of Kacc. in europe --however, I
wonder how many of them are correctly catalogued (i.e., source-text vs.
nissaya, etc.).

Yes, so do I. Many Ms of Kacc that have been catalogued as only comprising
the Sandhi chapter actually contain all pakara.nas.
As for Burmese editions of Kacc you will probably not have any difficulty
finding a good modern edition. I have two editions, but unfortunately I do
not read Burmese so I cannot give any bibliographical details.

Best,

Ole Pind

(2) If anyone has ever seen a publication with a title along the lines of
"Mon-English Grammar", I would very much like to hear about it.  I read
(very vaguely) that an award was given for a Thai university to publish a
grammar of the Mon language (and a "Mon-English" grammar --yet more
surprising for Thai academia) but I have never seen any sign of it --nor do
I know any more than this.

E.M.
