UKT 140428: With due respect to reverend sayadaws past and present, inside and outside Myanmarpré, from the point of language, the Bur-Myan word {ki.ri.ya} should not be spelled with a
{ra.ric}. The Bur-Myan
{ra.ric} sound is monosyllabic, whereas {ki.ri.} is disyllabic. My suggestion is to use
{ki.ri.ya}. Otherwise it can be confused with
{ka.} modified with the highly rhotic vowel ऋ of Skt-Dev. A Theravada Myanmar Buddhist missionary outside Myanmarpré has to deal with Skt-Dev, and it is imperative to differentiate Pali from Sanskrit. To solve this rhoticity problem in BEPS (Burmese-English-Pali-Sanskrit spoken words written in Myanmar-Latin-Devanagari scripts), Romabama has to come up with
{kri.},
{k~ri.}, and
{kRi.}.
