Sir,
You are using 'C' in place of 'K'. It is not NOROC but NOROK
CORUNC is to be written- KORUNK
PODDUNC is to be written -PODDUNK
C' was used for 'K' at the time of Portuguese. Konknni in Roman Script
has improved much since then.

You are right indeed! Show me an acceptable dictionary, preferably in
a copyright-free mode (or with publisher permission to reuse), and I
will immediately switch from the 1930 one. As of now, that's the most
convient one I have. FN
