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.

Mogal Fred That is very good you are publishing few at a time, so far I have seen only two e-mails, Have you published more? The phonetics are old and Fr. Naik may confirm them. Can you a get student as an apprentice to verify and publish it?

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?

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.
