'DEVA TUKA BOREM KORUM'
"You let me clean rob the coconut tree of my neighbour".
Venantius, could this be the genesis of Dev Borem Korum? a la Gabe Menezes??
Cheers

Subject: [Goanet] Deo Borem Korun
Does anyone know why--in Konknni, for 'thank you' it is Deo borem korun?
Why
is dhonyavad or some other construction not common?
Any ideas how this practice came about? Was it part of our earlier
formation--Is there something else to it?
