Re: MN 3 questions (1)

Of course I do use a book, De Silva's pali primer, and the DPR and english translations. But not everything is explained in a book, and sometimes if I am unsure about something I want to ask for confirmation, hence I am a member of this forum. Though of course noone is forced to reply.

I actually made a static web page with the grammar from De Silva's book ( without many of the examples from the book ), and I made it really easy for navigation so I use that when studying, since I have made it so that it is really easy to search through and jump to different sections (btw if anyone wants this let me know and I'll email them).

But the book is I guess not perfect, the only assaṃ I've found in my notes is singular  feminine locative of ima (this), hence I was unsure how it fit in the sentence, and as it turned out it does not have anything to do with ima ( as you explained ). The other option was "horse". I guess assaṃ is what you were reffering to when you implied that I am studying the language without any support
