O'Deka:
Is a variation same as "distortion"? Why I ask
is, if the original form is sacrosanct?

Srijuta (distortion of Shriyukta in Sanskrit) means "Let prosperity accompany him", :-) something similar to "PBUH" that some Muslims use when referring to Hazrat Muhammed. When a person has passed away, the common practice used to be to put "Swargiya" or its distortion "Xorgiyo" before the name. For example, Xorgiyo Gopinath Bordoloi.
Is that usage still in practice in Assam?
"Proyato" means gone or passed away. Proyato Srijuta is too farfetched, in my opinion.

O' Alpana:
Moi 'expart' nohoy, tothapi mukh melilw:
Sri, by definition, is an appellation for a live person.
Therefore Srijuta would be too I think.
BTW, what is the meaning of 'Proyato'? Is it same as Sworgiya/
Sworgiyo? If it is, then the combo may be an unusual one :-).
