Subject: [Goanet] Cotigao sounds our own.
The Goa govt officially uses Cotigao in all matters including website. The
vernacular writers when they mention it in English writing generally spell
it as Khotigao.
I personally find Khotigao a bit twisted sort of and somehow find it
difficult to identify the word with the Cotigao we have known.

I find the Portuguese spelling...pronouncing of the village as
Cotigao...beautiful...elegant...
Khotigao makes it signify as "land of lies".
Pls comment Tony Martin...
