Three Pali Dictionaries

Post by pitakele »

A few years ago I compiled, for personal use, an ebook version of the Concise Pali English Dictionary (A.P. Buddhadatta), created by Metta Net Sri Lanka, and available on budsas.org

More recently, I downloaded the PTS Pali Dictionary ebook from Path Press. As it is 22 separate files, I decided to compile a usable version. It is a very large dictionary, so I inserted extra table of content entries every 30 pages or so, e.g. Aṃ-Añ, Aṭ-Adh, An-Anī.

I noticed that A.P. Buddhadatta's English Pali Dictionary, created by Metta Net Sri Lanka, is available on budsas.org, so I compiled an ebook version of that as well.

Anyway, I would like to share these compilations with forum members. Below are download links for the various formats, including pdf (10 MB) for computers. All formats, plus docx, are included in the zip folders. If you are able to improve the ebooks, please feel free to do so. Also, please let me know if there are any problems with the download links.

Thank you!
I was not aware of the English-Pali dictionary. The Pali-English dictionary has been one of my resources for sometime.
