Hi Dmytro,
Thanks for the information about the Dictionary and the links to it which is good to be aware of even though I don’t know any Japanese.
Best,
Jim

Hi Jim,
Seems like Kogen Mizuno's dictionary is available in Japanese at:
http://dhamma.sutta.org/pali-course/Pali-Chinese-English%20Dictionary.html
http://dictionary..sutta.org/about
https://github.com/siongui/data/tree/master/dictionary
Kogen MIZUNO "Parigo Jiten (Pali-Japanese Dictionary)", Tokyo, Shunjyuusha, May 1968.
There's also:
Kogen MIZUNO "Parigo Bunpo (Pali Grammar)", Sankibo,Tokyo,1955.
The table obviously gives little regard to formal grammar, however it proves to be amazingly useful for beginners.
Understanding affixes is essential for those who delve deeper into Pāli grammar. Currently I participate in the creation of Pāli morphological analyzer, and all the elegance of word formation becomes evident.
Metta,
Dmytro
