Whoa, Gabe! Not so fast...

Two issues here:

(i) This dictionary is subject to copyright. A note on page vi reads: All
rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a
retrival system or transmitted, in any form or by any means, electronic,
mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the prior
permission of the publisher.

You are free to buy a copy in Goa though (mine costs Rs 120 here in Goa,
good price!)

(ii) Secondly, it's in Devanagari script. You don't expect me to take all
that daily flak for the way the words in Devanagari have been rendered into
Romi, do you? See what all is coming up when I merely type Romi into Romi
:-)

Hope all this debate would want to own a dictionary in Konkani. 1930, 2003,
2009 or whatever! Something is better than nothing. Debate is the best
teacher. FN

2011-05-13 Thread Alfred de Tavares

NOU, NOÌ is, used to be a very household item in Goa of wood-fire days when
it (mostly of kondó-bamboo) was used to flare up/keep going the kitchen fires.

Any hollow tubes.

The most loved NOIS in Goa were the ones carried by our Tarvittis containing all
their shipping commission and other documents relevant to their work

Thei were very valuable as they were hereditary and/or if the tarvotti did noy 
have a son
interested in working aboard a ship, it could be bequethed to a chap of the 
tarvotti's choice.

Aanother instance of NOUì lovingly used in Concanim is: SUNNEACHI XEMPDDI NOUEN
GALLEAR KENADNS UBBI ZAINA.

Used for any tube but most ubiquitously a bamboo one. It served us all, when 
young brats,
as FOTFOTTI, to be loaded wit TEPLAN / fired off...often with dire results: 
Ninh re Domnic?
Udgas aha?

Sir,

You are using 'C' in place of 'K'. It is not NOROC but NOROK

CORUNC is to be written- KORUNK

PODDUNC is to be written -PODDUNK

C' was used for 'K' at the time of Portuguese. Konknni in Roman Script 
has improved much since then.

You are right indeed! Show me an acceptable dictionary, preferably in
a copyright-free mode (or with publisher permission to reuse), and I
will immediately switch from the 1930 one. As of now, that's the most
convient one I have. FN
