Dr. Pind,
I have a "stupid question" that might be useful for others as well:
What technical term is used for "action noun" by Panini?
Is this category of word, perhaps, overlooked in the Pali tradition,
precisely because it is treated by Panini but not by Kacc., or not by
Buddhaghosa, etc.?
[Viz., I am assuming Kacc does not have an equivalent category --in
part simply because he has so few technical terms whatsoever. It is
certainly easy to regard all Pali participles as "just some
participle" without further differentiation.]
E.M.
