SV: Kacc. example, "parakkamo"

The word is derived from Sanskrit paraa + krama which phonetically becomes
parakkama, kk entailing reduction of aa to a.

Emne: [palistudy] Kacc. example, "parakkamo"



Vidyabhusana explains _parakkamo_ as pa+a+kamo (with the "r" as a
euphonic insertion); the more obvious explanation would be para+kamo.
None of my dictionaries treat the word (perhaps because the prefix
"para" is self-evident) --is there a good reason for Vidyabhusana to
propose pa+a rather than para?
