Excellent work Dinesh ji. I have 2 or 3 dumb little questions; You don't mention કોથા Kotha, is this wrong? Is Kothi = Kotthi, Kothu = Kotthu? if not what are the scripted words equivalent. You list કોહું Kohu but Usha di mentions Kotthu. Please explain. It is very informative to mention the differences between sing. plur. masc. and fem. Thanks Usha di. Those of us who do have grammatical genders in their language greatly appreciate these details. Some languages do not have plurals so it is also good to mention that there could be 2 forms of the same name depending on the number. I humbly suggest to master Dinesh that it would be useful to add this info to names in such listings, something like (sing.) (plur.) (masc.) (fem.). Example કોઠી Kothi (fem.).
