Thank you so much for your description of the functionality of the niggahīta 🙏 I was so lost and so many textbooks and other videos online either didn't explain it well enough or completely avoided it. I've been gathering resources to learn Pāli for the past week or so because I plan on both studying the Tipitaka as well as pursuing ordination as a monk and I know that learning the original language of the Pāli Canon will help me immensely. Your videos are allowing me to pursue my future dreams so I thank you.

0:59 this is Thai. The phonology has changed a lot now. ก-ka ขคฆ-kha ง-nga จ-ja ฉชฌ-cha ญ-ya ฏ-ta ฐฑฒ-tha ณ-na ต-ta(again) ถทธ-tha(again) น-na(again) ป-pa ผพภ-pha ม-ma ย-ya ร-ra ล-la ว-wa ส-sa ห-ha There are two ways to write Pāli in Thai. The one that obeys Thai orthography and the one that obeys Pāli orthography. For example โหนตุ reads “hōntu” in Thai, but “hōnatu” in Pāli. So in Pāli we need ฺ under the ending consonant. โหนฺตุ now reads “hōntu” in Pāli. พุทธัง reads “buddhang”(actually putthang in modern phonology) in Thai, but in Pāli we need to write พุทฺธํ The ฺ under the ท is, of course, to not make an “a” sound after it. And the ํ above the ธ? That’s the niggahita(นิคหิต) it makes the -ng sound. นํ says nang, นิํ says Ning. ิ makes the “i” sound in Thai. -Thai dood
A most excellent presentation of Pali pronunciation! Wish I didn’t have the pet-peeve of shuttering when I hear Western monks ordained in the Thai sangha pronounce “v” as a hard “w.” Somehow it doesn’t bother me when Thais do it. Lol.
Thank You. Please tell me saṃsāra from pali - what is more correct - to write and say samsara or sansara in English, slavic and other languages? Is it closer to saMsara or saNsara?
Yes I agree this is a poorly covered area; and I have to add I'm no expert. I think there are two things to be aware of. First is heavy & light syllables. Heavy syllables are emphasized. A syllable in Pāli is either Consonant (C) + a vowel (v) or a vowel alone. C+v, v - Ānandajoti has a syllable guide: www.ancient-buddhist-texts.net/Textual-Studies/Grammar/The-Parsing-of-Pali.htm A syllable is heavy if it contains: long vowel [ā, ī, ū, e, o], [a, i, u] + ṃ, or [a, i, u] + CC - You'll find more information in articles on Prosody (Pāli poetry). Secondly, there is stress. Stress is placed on the last heavy syllable of the word, but not the last syllable itself. I hope that helps.
Mostly correct, though unfortunately the "jh" is mispronounced. It should be pronounced as d͡ʒʰ, like an English "j" (or like dg in the word "edge"), only aspirated. The Glasgow tutorial you posted pronounces it as ʒ like the Russian Ж or Farsi ژ or like the "s" in the English word "pleasure." I'm not sure why. Regarding the "v," ideally it should be pronounced as labiodental approximant ʋ (which is a unique sound not found in English), but honestly it's easiest just to pronounce it as English v when between two vowels and as English w when in a conjunct consonant.
Thank you for the feedback. In my playlist on the alphabet, I've tried to include as many sources as possible as I myself am terrible at pronunciation.
Hi admin, could you please introduce me a tool/website/app (ios app) that could pronounce a pali word when we type it or press it in a sentence? Thank you so much!
Sorry, I don't know of any such app. It would be very useful though. The nearest thing I can think of is SuttaCentral Voice, where you can type a pāli word, and it will read out various sutta references including that word... voice.suttacentral.net/scv/index.html#/sutta
Hi, my native is chinese language. I don't understand well about dental and retroflex. you said english has no counterpart with dental, and english t and d are very close to retroflex. If retroflex is close to t, why they put a dot underneath?
First, I'm not an expert. But, retroflex means "bent back"; true retroflex consonants are pronounced with the tongue fully curled back so that articulation involves the underside of the tongue tip on the roof of the mouth. Whereas the dental involves touching the tongue to the tooth ridge. I think in English, the t sound is more retroflex than the d sound. See the Pali alphabet playlist for a wider selection: ua-cam.com/video/m7qFn3tUX-g/v-deo.html
See dear, all Indian languages, whether Dravidian, indo-aryan languages have preserved this retroflex distinction, except interestingly, Sino-tibetan languages, which have zh, nga that are not used by the aforesaid languages. The retroflexes can be pronounced very easily, u just need to place ur tongue just above the teeth area, the big rounded portion and it's aspirated. Breathe in air, touch the portion of that aforesaid area of ur ridge with ur tongue and try to produce a sound by leaving or exhaling air at the same time. Try to pronounce( t, th, d, dh, n) like that, there is no English equivalent sadly. If u use the tongue and touching the teeth to pronounce them, then they would be dental consonants( t, th, d, dh, n) and easily found in English like "tits" for dental t, " thor" for th, "devour" for d and so on . Retroflex consonants are rarely found in world linguists, but so are the tones in Sinitic languages. If u try to get it the way I said, it's easier. small children in India, usually have problems in pronouncing retroflex sounds at first, but eventually they get it. If u are having problems, Do write in the comments, I can send some links, whereas it's easy.
Lily de Silva’s the" Pali Primer" is possibly the easiest. This is a simple, if rudimentary introduction to the language. Or Narada Thera's "An Elementary Pali Course" is a complete beginners course in Pali that moves a bit faster than de Silva's Primer. Both are available free online. And you can find links on my Pali Language resource page: palistudies.blogspot.com/p/resources.html And I also have a post on starting to learn Pali: palistudies.blogspot.com/2018/05/learn-pali-where-to-begin.html Hopefully this will get you off to a good start.
Burmese accent on the alphabets c and ch use "s" sound (as in "say") j and jh use "z" sound (as in "zero") v is pronounced as "w" sound s is pronounced as "soft t" sound (as in thing) o is pronounced as "aw" as in "law" There are some rules on pronouncing the words that look strange in Burmese characters. Examples with approximate pronunciations Manussaloka (Ma- note* - ta - law- ka) Buddha (boat- da) Metta (mit- ta) Jhāna (zaa- na) Aññamañña (in- nya- min- nya) Maṅgala (min- ga- la) Tāvatiṃsa (Taa- wa- tame*- ta) Cakkhu (Sak- khu) Extra fact: Pāli words (usually "burma-nized") are recognised as a type of nouns in Burmese grammar.
I'm a self taught student, mainly learning from books. I've traveled a lot in India, studying both Buddhism & Vedanta. During lock-down I thought learning Pali might be fun... I struggled with the technical language and was quite shocked how little resource there was for the absolute beginner, especially on UA-cam. So I decided to document my own learning experience, and give explanations as I went along.
I have heard that you love to speak Pali language. I do.. So that I would love to have a chance to conversate with you in Pali language. How can I contact with you? Thanks.
Maybe you can help with Pali C - so Cakkhu (chak-ku meaning eye) sounds like rich at beginning of word. But why is there loads of doubles c in Pali - Example; Anicca, (A-ni-cha meaning impermanence) spelt with 2 c? but we pronounce it as A-ni-cha? why is there a double c when there is no need for it? thinking about it, anytime you see cc is just pronounced like Ch?
OK, first, I'm no expert on this - I'm just a student like yourself. But I can shed some light on a few things here. First, each letter in Pāli only has one sound, so 'c' in Pāli is always pronounced 'ch' as in chat. The 'k' fills in the English 'c' sound as in cat. The double 'cc' just makes the 'ch' sound longer. Many double consonants in Pāli, come from a Vedic origin. For instance, anicca (a+nicca) is based on the Vedic, 'a-nitya', The 'ty' consonant cluster isn't allowed in Pāli and so under goes a phonological transformation to become 'cc'. According to Bhante Ānandajoti's website: Any dental or retroflex stop or nasal followed by y converts to the corresponding palatal sound, and the y assimilates to this new consonant, eg. satya → sacya → sacca For more see: www.ancient-buddhist-texts.net/Textual-Studies/Grammar/Transforming-Sanskrit-into-Pali.htm Hope that helps.

@@LearnPali hi dear, I believe the CCA sound that he is referring to, is formed by the combination of 2 ca, not one. It is very common in indian languages, I believe this is called "gemination of consonants" in linguistics. So, if u want to write anicca, let's break it this way, Anicca- A( the first vowel) + ni( dental n with short i vowel ) + cca( ca+ca; 2 times; try to pronounce the letter by combining 2 ca's together). So, if I write this in Devanagari script, it would be like this as the order I specified earlier- Anicca- अ+नि+च्च ( the character for A is अ, dental n is न and for ca, it's च. Since it's geminated by combining 2 ca's , the letter is also written by combining 2 ca's together) Usually, the abugidas that we use, we tend to write the geminated consonants by joining one half of the consonant with the same consonant. There are 2 types of Abugidas in India, Northern Brahmi and Southern Brahmi. The northern type is exactly like the aforesaid, while the Southern Brahmic Abugidas like Sinhalese, burmese and Thai tend to use special characters, that u have to learn while learning the script.

@@rtam7097 not modified... it was the local language of the lay people that time. It came to be knows as Magadhi during Ashoka's reign when Pataliputra of Magadha became the capital. The language used during Vedas and Upanishads was known as chhandas.

Yes, you're right, and that's why I've included a visual so you can see how the mouth is working. For other alphabet intros see the playlist: ua-cam.com/video/m7qFn3tUX-g/v-deo.html
Great presentation but it would be better if the actual pronunciation was done by a native hindu speaker. It would be much closer and more accurate that way.
When you're in an Indian mindset, you'll do such mistakes! Expecting logics in English, like that of their language. I mean, why there's no "Ha" sound in "aitch", if there's "ka" sound in "Kay" and so on!

or [a, i, u] + CC
- You'll find more information in articles on Prosody (Pāli poetry).
Secondly, there is stress.
Stress is placed on the last heavy syllable of the word, but not the last syllable itself.
I hope that helps.

When Pāli uses different scripts, is the grammar the same, just transliterated ? Bob
Yes, the grammar is unchanged. I known there are some differences between accents - Sri Lankan Pali vs Thai vs Burmese - but I think the grammar is pretty much the same.
Are there no s, sha, sha in pali ?
The 3 Sanskrit sibilants s, ṣ, ś all change to a plain dental s in Pali. This appears at the end of the semi-vowels listed at 01:17 in the tutorial.
