Entries of Pali words in Pal-Myan and Romabama, and Sanskrit words in
Skt-Dev and Romabama. This is to cross-check with Sanskrit sources using the
meanings given in the dictionaries.
Based on The Student's Pali English Dictionary (in Pal-Lat)
by Maung Tin, M.A., Professor of Pali,
Rangoon College, BRITISH BURMA PRESS,
RANGOON. 1920. pp257.

With additions from U Hoke Sein, Pali-Myanmar Dictionary, {pa.dat~hta.miñ-zu-þa}, in (Pal-Myan and Skt-Myan), in 4 volumes, vol.1 1st. printing ca. 1954, vol.4 1st printing ca. 1959, Ministry of Religious Affairs publication, Rangoon , p1180. [Since Skt-Myan is easily mistaken for Pal-Myan, it is converted to Skt-Dev for cross-checking with Sanskrit sources. However they are not shown to avoid confusion.]
And additions from Sanskrit sources particularly from: A Practical Sanskrit Dictionary - by A.A. Macdonell.

Since my interest at this point is to compare the Skt-Dev r2c3, c2c4, c2c5 graphemes and the sounds from their conjuncts to those of Pal-Myan and Bur-Myan, we will now jump to {ka.}, {hka.} (and the Skt stand-in «ks»), {ga.}. {nga.} , ... {za.}, {Za.}, {ña.}. - UKT111008
I have to change my direction of 111008. Now I am going to proceed to PED-UPMT02.indx - UKT111107The following group is the palatal plosive-stop. Because of their friction, they are mistaken for dental sibilant-fricatives. This group is depicted in Skt-Dev as: च ज ञ [ignore the English transcriptions]. The phonemes च ज are phonemically-related to
. In Romabama the grapheme
It is worthwhile to remember that this group involves the most fricative and most lip-spread phoneme,{Za.} which is probably absent in the highly rhotic Sanskrit. It is present in both Bur-Myan (e.g.
{Zé:} 'bazaar') and Pal-Myan (e.g.
{Za-na.} 'close intensive observation').
The nasal of the group,{ña.} /ɲ/, is easier than
{nga.} to pronounce for non-Burma born people. [Note: In Pal-Myan,
{Ña.kri:} is the horizontal conjunct of two
{ñ~ña.} and is without a sound. Differentiate from Bur-Myan, where

UKT: The names of Chandragupta and Chanakya, the king and the king-maker,
were mentioned together in the Glass Palace Chronicles written in
1837. In the reproduction (in three volumes in Burmese-Myanmar) published in
1993 by U Soe Nyunt (with preface by Dr. Khin Maung Nyunt, Professor,
History Department, University of Rangoon) and a short introduction by Daw
Than Myint, Lecturer, Burmese Department, University of Rangoon), vol. 1, p.
87 - 93, we find the two names together. Chandragupta was mentioned as "King
Chandragupta"
{san~da.goat~ta. ming:} and Chanakya as "Brahmin Chanakya"
{za-nak~ka. poaN~Na:}.
