From today’s Washington Post:
Back in November, Ajeet Jain felt like he was living a nightmare. The large
public hospital where he works in India's capital was full of covid-19

Hello Sonia!
Although I know a thing or two — I really appreciate you for your gracious

Thank you Venantius, it is just a small intervention. As I said small
roadside shrines in our village are called Khuris, regardless of which

Another tiny intervention. The K is not used only C. Even now Portuguese
use only C; K is for words of foreign origin. Kapri comes from Cafre which
is Black.
