Re: Lanna script; observation on ".l" in Pyuu script

Namaskara Ven. Phra Dhammanando,

Thanks for the message. I have not seen this book. I have
several script books produced in the 1980s and 90s in Laos and
Thai, but not this one. Do you find that it suppliments or
improves Harald Hundius' impressive "Scrift und Phonologie der
Nord Thai"? If so, I would certainly like to see a copy
myself. I am not planning a big project like Eisel, but am
simply curious to see the book and compare it others.

Can I send you funding necessary to copy it for me as well?

Thank you very much for calling this to the group's (via
Eisel) attention.

Respectfully,
justin
