200527
on p479 we find the text:
"A treatise on Pali grammar by Kaccayana
{kic~sæÑ:}. The treatise is in eight divisions,
each division comprising suttas
{þoat~ta.} or rules, expressed with great brevity; vutti
{woat~ti.} or
supplements, to render the suttas intelligible; payoga
{pa.yau:ga.} or grammatical analyses,
with examples, and nyasa
{ña-þa.} or scholia, explanatory notes of the principal
grammatical forms in the shape of questions and answers. [UKT¶]
The nyasa often exists as a separate book, called the Mukhamattadipani. Orthodox tradition ascribes the whole work to Maha Kaccana, [UKT¶]
but another tradition, recorded in the Kaccayanabheda, states that the aphorisms are by Kaccayana, the vutti by
Sanghanandi, the illustrations by Brahmadatta and the nyasa by Vimalabuddhi
- all perhaps belonging to the same school of Avanti (see above, Kaccana).
"Kaccayanas work shows clearly the influence of Sanskrit grammar, chiefly the
Katantra. Many later works were written about the Kaccayana (as it is called) or
were based on it, the chief among them being the Rupasiddhi, the Kaccayanabheda,
the Kaccayanasara and the Kaccayanavannana (q.v.). For details see P.L.C.179ff;
Bode, 21."

My conjecture: Shin Kic'si
{shin kic~sæÑ:} was contemporary with Gautama Buddha. We do not definitely know
whether Buddha preceded Panini (who formulated classical Sanskrit) or not, but it is certain that Buddha was from
north-eastern India and Panini was from the north-western part, and so the
language of Buddha and Shin Kic'si was to be regarded as Prakrit (precursor of
Sanskrit), the language
of Magadha Mahajanapada
{ma-ga.Da. ma.ha-za.na.pa.da.} of Tib-Bur speakers. The task was to teach Buddhism to the
south-eastern Dravidian population, specifically to Telugu (not Tamil)
speakers (Aus-Asi speakers). Thus, the
reverend Buddhist scholar (praised by the Buddha himself), had to improvise
many grammatical terms, and had to rely on Katantra grammar which had
been invented to teach Prakrit to a Telugu king (an Aus-Asi speaker) who had
been ridiculed by one of his Prakrit speaking queens) during a frolicking in
water. The king had
misinterpreted what the queen had said:
"*modakaṃ dehī deva =
{ma} «mā»
{U.da.kän} «udakaṃ»
{dé-hi.} «dehī»
{dé-wa} «deva»"
which meant "Lord, please do not splash me with water".
The king had misinterpreted «modakaṃ» as
{mau:da.ka.} «modaka» "a sweet meat", and had it brought to the queen, thus
becoming a laughing stock.

{su-la-na.hpa}
is an important ingredient in traditional medicine. Since UHS and UPMT have
pointed to different species, we need to decide who is right or whether both are
wrong.
I came to know a well known Bur-Myan Herbalist who was running a herbal store by the name Kra'nyo'pun . When, I noticed the herbs looked differently from time to time, I asked my friend who was already an old man whose name I've forgotten. He explained that the herbs will look differently when collected in different times of the year. He complained about the sorry state of plant collection in the wild and the ignorance of plant parts by the younger generation of herbalists which included his own sons.
It was then when I started taking interest in Pharmacgonosy and plant taxonomy - different disciplines from my own Chemical Engineering and Chemistry. However, I had become familiar with the identification of plants while being trained for my M.S. for Pulp and Paper Industry at Institute of Paper Chemistry, Appleton, Wisconsin, USA, in 1957-59. I was trained in fibre microscopy and identification of trees used for pulping.
For my journey into and plant taxonomy I got some help from my close friend U Pyone (10 yrs older than me), lecturer in Botany. He recommended that I looked into Plant Taxonomy by George H. M. Lawrence, his favourite from the 1950s. For Pharmacgonosy * I got help from an ex-class mate, U Pe Than, who has a M.Sc. in Pharmacy from University of Nottingham.
* "Pharmacognosy deals with the natural drugs obtained from organisms such as most plants, microbes, and animals." - Ilkay Erdogan Orhan, Dep. of Pharmacognosy, Fac. of Pharmacy, Gazi Univ., Ankara, Turkey, in - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/267732079_Pharmacognosy_Science_of_natural_products_in_drug_discovery/... 200601
For my work on Medicinal Plants, I had to expand my literature resources to the works of my friends from the Botany Department, and also look into publications from the Agricultural and Forestry departments.
From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alhagi_maurorum 200531
Alhagi maurorum is a species of legume commonly known, variously, as camelthorn, [1] camelthorn-bush, [1] Caspian manna, [1] and Persian mannaplant. [1] This shrub is native to the region extending from the Mediterranean to Russia, but has been introduced to many other areas of the world, including Australia, southern Africa, and the western United States. [UKT ¶]
The perennial plant grows from a massive rhizome system which may extend over six feet into the ground. New shoots can appear over 20 feet from the parent plant. Above the ground, the plant rarely reaches four feet in height. It is a heavily branched, gray-green thicket with long spines along the branches. It bears small, bright pink to maroon pea flowers and small legume pods, which are brown or reddish and constricted between the seeds. The seeds are mottled brown beans.
Distribution: Alhagi maurorum is indigenous to temperate and tropical Eurasia and the Middle East, in: Afghanistan; Armenia; Azerbaijan; northwest China; Cyprus; northern India; Iran; Iraq; Israel; Jordan; Kazakhstan; Kuwait; Lebanon; Mongolia; Pakistan; Syria; Tajikistan; Turkey; Turkmenistan; Uzbekistan; and Russia (in Ciscaucasia, Dagestan, southern European Russia, and the southern part of the West Siberian Plain). [1]
A. maurorum has become naturalized in Australia and the southwest U.S.. [1]
Uses: Alhagi maurorum has been used locally in folk medicine as a treatment for glandular tumors, nasal polyps, and ailments related to the bile ducts. [2] It is used as a medicinal herb for its gastroprotective, diaphoretic, diuretic, expectorant, laxative, antidiarrhoeal and antiseptic properties, and in the treatment of rheumatism and hemorrhoids. [citation needed] The plant is mentioned in the Qur’an as a source of sweet Manna. [citation needed] It has also been used as a sweetener. [1]
UKT 200531: I wonder whether U Hoke Sein has made a mistake, for he was only a lexicographer, and since Agri. Dept has given Sularnapha as Fumaria parviflora - Fumariaceae . From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fumaria_parviflora 200531
Fumaria parviflora is a species of flowering plant known by the common names fineleaf fumitory, fine-leaved fumitory[1] and Indian fumitory. It is native to Europe, Asia, and Africa, but it is common and widely distributed in many other parts of the world. It is sometimes weedy. The small flowers are dull white with purple tips. The fruit is a rounded nutlet with a central crest.
UKT Conclusion 200531: There are many cases like the above. Someone in Myanmarpré should do something about the Myanmar Traditional Medicinal Plants.
