Konkani Wikipedia

[edit]

Dear Konknni friends,

Konkani Wikipedia has been started and been in test stage since August 2006.

Kindly contribute towards the Konkani wikipedia. We intend to make it a multiscript

Wikipeida. At least tri-script with Roman ,Devanangiri and Kannada scripts since these are the most popular ones.

We would like to get more articles/templates in place. We also need volunteers to do the thankless and boring job of transliterating it to different scripts .

As of now only two members are making active contributions. The more the merrier. Your contribution is vital to its success.

Origin of the name

[edit]

The name Pai is not derived from the Sanskrit Pati, but from the Kannada Appa, meaning father, which is usually added as a suffix to a name among the Kannadigas. Pai is derived through the variant, Appai, being a direct abbreviation. The Kannadigas had come to dominate the South Konkan for a long time in the Middle Ages, ending with the rule of the Kadamba dynasty, originally Tulu, but which had adopted Kannada. The Seuna Yadava dynasty of Maharashtra, based in Devnagar, and which lasted until the Khilji Conquest, was also originally Kannadiga. The alleged Sanskrit origin from Pati is a fabrication, and is also illogical, as the t would not be dropped, and has never been dropped - especially by Brahmins, the upholders of the Sanskrit language. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.177.244.78 (talk) 16:07, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
