Re: a peculiar form

Hello Dr. Pind,

   Always impressive to read your observations.

   It is a big leap from _jiiranti_ to _jiridanti_ --I do not think
that orthography at any stage could be made to account for the
difference between the two.

   The very rarity of the word probably made it more susceptible to
mutation through human incompetence.

   I assume the medial syllables were first mutated to "rida-", then
the initial "jii" was mis-corrected to "ji" as if it were a prefix.

E.M.
