Hi there,
I'm a newbie at Sanskrit and have a rather basic question.
I was trying to translate the work "FAIR" into sanskrit.
Fair in the context of a market place. Like a happy fun filled market fair
where people
come to buy artsy things.
Some of the words that I found were:
*haTTa*
*karaGgaNa*
*krayAroha*
*nirghaTa*
*nirmuTa*
*paNagranthi*
*sravadraGga*
Can someone please guide me as to which one suits the context in the best
way?
Thanks in advance,
Aashish.

Is it su-su-Agata [which IS correct, though slangy, with its double <su->]; or
su-sva-Agata "very good company"? It just means "Welcome", or "Very well come!"
Well, welcome. You might consider the implications of su-sva-agata vs.
su-sva-Agata.
But welcome to my favourite mailbox treat page, sanskrit@cs.utah.edu but what
is <cs>?

I understand that drAviDa has its origin somewhat like this:
tamizha => tamiLa => dramiLa => dramiDa => draviDa and drAviDa.
Most of the tamil words with La or zha (as in muraLi not murali)
becomes Da in telugu. Also in some cases ma becomes va. This
is present even in telugu as in mAma and mAva, dEvuDu and dEmuDu.
