Deka Bap:
Yes, what Barua wrote sounds strange because that is the truth. There is no word 'o-nibaxi' (your 'anibasi') in any Assamese dictionary. As I said it is a modern word being used for the phrase Non Resident; an o-nibaxi oxomia is a NRA. If you find the word in any dictionary, or in any book (Kamrupi or otherwise) with your 'imaginary' meaning, I will be happy to correct myself. Till then the net demands that you either admit that you are wrong or prove that sonam-dhonyo Rajen Barua is wrong. (BTW if the word is not there in Hemkwx, neither Chandan, Shantikam or B'dew can help).
Bye.

>Q3. Is Raxi Barua the name as well in the certificate?
>Q4. Wondering why swanam dhanya Rajen Barua did not write the name of his other daughter as “Ongkhi” (referring some past emails including from Rajen Barua, Chandan Mahanta, Shantikam Hazarika, B’Dew, ..., and all of them wrote her name in the emails as “Ankhee” only)?

>A: The name Xourov Kumar Soliha is a pseudoname of an Assamese writer. I do not remember that the writer himself ever wrote his name in Roman script. In fact if you ask him if the writer knows Xourov Kumar Soliha, he would say, No, Who is he. He is very secretative about his psedoname. Even if he would have written, I bet he would not have used X for Dontyo XO. So far I know nobody has till now used the X for proper name (Dax, Xotyen, Xorma, Xoikia, etc) . There is exception however. One daughter of Sonam-dhonyo Rajen Barua is named 'Raxi' where X is used to represent the Talobyo XO, Raxi meaning Star. I hope you got your answer for whatever reason you wanted it. If you are trying to prove something, you are missing the target.

>Is Xourov Kumar Soliha "anibasi" ?

>A: For a moment I thpought 'anibasi' is an English word. But then I realised that probably you are trying to mean 'onibaxi'. Please note that the proper spelling of the word in 'Assamese in Roman Script' will be 'o-nibaxi'. You want to know if Xourov Kumar Soliha is a 'o-nibaxi' or in plain language, a non resident of Assam. So far we all know he had been living in Assam and still lives in Assam. I don't know if at this old age he recently immigrated to some countries outside India. Have you heard anything? Again it is not known why you want to know this information out of the blue out of a statement made by me of him. Anyhow, I think you got your answer.
