Synopsis

Over 400 pages of Pali vocabulary are explained in this pragmatic frequency based dictionary which reflects the most common 1000 canonical words of the Pali Suttas sorted by their frequency. A study of these words and a student's familiarity with this dictionary will make it much easier to navigate and understand the Pali suttas. As a source for the more serious Pali learner and those who wish to master fundamental building blocks of canonical Pali sentences - this unique assortment of Pali words in conjunction with hundreds of actual example sentences drawn from the suttas help improve reading and especially comprehension skills dramatically. Each entry starts with a short explanation of the grammar and definition behind the word presented. For each vocabulary one or more example sentences are provided which show the word in its original context. In this way the basic idea of the word is given through the dictionary definition and a more intuitive understanding follows through selected sentences showing the actual usage of the word as found in the suttas.
