Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I translate Pali Text to English?

  This will give Pali text and English translation side by side. And below this, on the same menu, if you scroll down, is 'Activate Pali word lookup'. By selecting 'Pali->English', and then if you hover our mouse over any Pali word, a short English translation pops up.

• What is this Pali dictionary app?

• Why is the Pali-English Dictionary so expensive?

  The Pali-English Dictionary of the Pali Text Society is too large and too expensive for those studying in schools and colleges. Therefore I prepared two such works during the war, but owing to paper control, which was lifted only recently, the Pali-English Dictionary alone is now appearing in print.

• Where can I find a Pali-English lexicon?

  The only available Pali-English lexicon—the work of Childers being long out of print—is the famous publication of the Pali Text Society, but this too is fast becoming rare and difficult to procure. In any case the cost is too heavy for the average student.

• When was the first edition of the Pali dictionary published?

  FOREWORD. It is somewhat hard to realize, seeing how important and valuable the work has been, that when ROBERT CAESAR CHILDERS published, in 1872, the first volume of his Pali Dictionary, he only had at his command a few pages of the canonical Pali books.

• When was the last time the Pali-English Dictionary was updated?

  The Pali Text Society's Pali-English dictionary. Chipstead, 1921-1925. The "Additions and Corrections" included with The Pali Text Society's Pali-English dictionary have been applied to the data when this text was converted into a database. Data for this dictionary was most recently updated in March 2021.

• What is the Pali Canon?

  The Pali of the canonical books is based on that standard Kosala vernacular as spoken in the 6th and 7th centuries B. C. It cannot be called the ʻliteraryʼ form of that vernacular, for it was not written at all till long afterwards. That vernacular was the mother tongue of the Buddha.
