I have completed part of 7 and will do that for 8 too and then post them as soon as possible. My sanskrit knowledge is extremely poor and even in cases where I can understand the meaning, my English vocabulary is very limited to translate many of the words. So, where it is not possible, I have simply tried to provide the sanskrit or thamizh words themselves. As expected, periyavachchan piLLai tries to reason out as well as justify some of the words of aazhvaar. In fact, he has even convinced me a little bit - though not fully yet :-) --badri -------------------------------------------------- S.Badrinarayanan Graduate Student Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Cornell University --------------------------------------------------
