Ixttano,
The native Konkani word for beach is vell, a feminine noun in which the sound
of e is open. Hence the plural (beaches) is vello (the e is open but the o is
closed.)
Doryadeg is not an apt synonym. Dorya = sea and deg = margin/border/edge
as in kapddadeg = border/margin/edge of a sari.

Absolutely none although many will disagree. I do when in Goa.

Dear MD,
MD said: I may be wrong, would appreciate responses.

not so.

Many thanks for your several responses which only go to prove the point that I
wanted to make: that Konkani has many words and expressions for expressing
gratitude without expressly invoking God and that the hackneyed expression can
sometimes go to ridiculous limits like if we

I have heard people saying argam tuka Deva. Will that do? I think there are
different ways of addressing. May think over it.

May I also point to two other expressions
The ethmology of the word Good is not God as we understand the word. The
ethomology of morning is morewen.
Good morning is not exactly derived from May God give you a good morning. It is
an expression of its own accord from Gode morewen, for the olde English word
good.
