Congratulations to Jaime DeMello and to the authors and the work Titled: 'RAJHAUNS New Generation Konkani-English Illustrated Dictionary' authored by Suresh J Borkar, Mukesh P Thali and Damodar K Ghanekar. This is a Konkani (Devnagri script) to English dictionary.
IMHO when Konkani in whatever script flourishes, the Konkani language is enriched. What we now need is an encore performance of the Konkani-English Dictionary in the Latin Script (if one does not exist). I encourage Jaime DeMello, Basilio Magno, Jorge de Abreu Noronha and many other experts on the Konkani language (Roman script) to undertake an encore performance to the Konkani-English Illustrated Dictionary (now in Roman Script). This would standardize the spelling of many Konkani words. In the little that I read and write of Konkani, I am bewildered that there are at least ten variations of spellings of Goenkars and five variations in the spelling of feni.
