UKT 201017: Bur-Myan Buddhists are fond of groupings. A common example is the Five Precepts,
{gna:pa: þi-la.} (see Group of Five ), which devote Buddhists keep for everyday. Yet there are many who do not know what those are. We find the Five Precepts in SriLanka: a monk would lead the recitation as the teacher, and the lay-people would follow the recitation, and in conclusion the monk would ask his audience to keep the Precepts for the day. Listen to a Sri Lankan monk and his audience: - bk-cndl-LankaPali<)) (link chk 201017)

The Doggie Tale:

Little doggie cringe in fear -- ŋ (velar),
Seeing Ella's flapping ears -- ɲ (palatal)
And, the Shepard's hanging rear -- ɳ (retroflex).
Doggie so sad he can't get it out
What's that Kasha क्ष
when there's a Kha ख ?
And when there's Jana ज्ञ
what I am to do with Jha झ?
On top of all there're hissers,
Sha श /ʃ/ and Ssa ष /s/,
when I am stuck with Theta स
/θ/ !"
