INDEX.
The pronunciation of Pali words is exceedingly easy. The vowels
have always the same sound as in Italian or German (except that
unaccented short a is pronounced as u in hut), and the consonants
the same as in English (except that c = ch, fi = ny, and i) = ng).
The dotted t, tj, n, are the same as in English; hut the simple d, t, n,
are pure dentals,that is, they are pronounced with the tongue
against the teeth. The accent is always on the long syllable. For
further details, see my manual, Buddhism, p. v.
