I am grateful to Jim Funderburk, Stephen Rhodes, and Herman Tull for bringing errors to my attention. If you notice errors not in this list, please email me with "Ramopakhyana" in the subject line. Corrections here include all corrections to the text received in Eudora 16 Jan 2004 to 3 Nov. 2006 and in MacMail 30 Oct 2006 - 30 Mar 2009.

Introduction

  1. p. 3, change "cluminating" to "culminating".
  2. In Intro sec. IIA (p. 29), Change "chapters 267-276" to "chapters 257-276."
  3. In Preface, Development, paragraph 2 change ‘I’ to ‘me’ in “compiled by George Cardona, Elliot Stern, and I”.
  4. Note for me: Add mention of the fact that I list the adjectival stem in the glossary and provide no indication of the feminine suffix to be added to derive the inflectional stem. Or add such an indication for each. Where adjectives have a feminine affix, list: dīptākṣa, -ī, with explanation in the grammatical introduction that the feminine suffix occurs after the comma?
