Re: [Assam] zoo
Dilip da I will hazard a suggestion. We can always add to the language. ZOO as suggested by you and as supported by reasons is not necessarily a bad idea (this expression is used by a professor friend and it leaves room for doubt whether the idea was considered to be good or bad):-). POXU BHARAL is easy on our Assamese tongues. By stream roller of analogy we may say POXUHALI (taking a cue from GOHALI). By the way, Guwahati boasts of a restaurant called GOHALI.

Re: [Assam] zoo
The loose correspondence in Assamese for the words,you have mentioned. CUP --- PIOLA / BATI STATION -- ASHTHAN SCHOOL -- VIDYALAY / PATHSHALA MASTER--- ODHISNATOR GLASS KACH /CHICHA There is no harm in incorporating a foreign word as long as there is no equivalent of the same available in our language.In my view,the word in question ( read zoo) can be transliterated using oxomiya words.

Re: [Assam] zoo
Dilipda, Although,CHIRIAKHANA is an acceptable porivakha in Assamese language,the word appears to be a borrowed one.I think,the word can easily be translated using pure Assamese word.
