If you give us one-liners in Konkani with translations in English, you could help us to understand usage of the words! Just yesterday, a retired ambassador was suggesting this, as a means of keeping in touch with Konkani. FN PS: Anyone willing to offer Skype coaching in Konkani? Charged or uncharged? Goanet could match supply and demand. Just a thought...

Re: [Goanet] Konkani Word A Day: hairann, hambog, hamlett, harcor
True. You are right, Domnic and I get your point. Though, when Anglicised (or used in an English context), sometimes plural of Konkani words are formed in the English style (by adding an 's'). For instance -- mando and mandos. Technically, the Konkani plural should be mandde. Anyway, keeping that aside, would you accept *bangre*? I mean, using a 'g' instead of a double 'd'?

Is this a case of rendering the same word in different ways? For instance, I was a bit surprised on reading about 'bangras'. Mackerals. But then, realising that the Indian sound of 'd' and 'r' are quite close (correct me if wrong), it made sense. FN COMMENT: The Konkani word for mackerel is "bangddo," singular; "bangdde," plural.
