Hi,

Kudos for the detail with which you are able to mention aspects of the Sanketi dialect. Clearly you are into linguistics! However, I would like to point out that the Kannada language possesses the short 'e' sound you describe. [Difference between 'edu'=which and 'adu'=that]. It is true that Sanskrit lacks short 'e' and short 'o' but [[Kannada]] has it. Maybe what you want to say is that the meaning changes dramatically for this small pronounciation change. That is interesting, but hardly worthy of mention in an encyclopedia. In either event, can you please confirm and change your sentence.

Secondly, in the "References" section, you need to either cite a published work by Mr.Srikaanth Murthy or else provide a link to a website that contains information that you have used. In case Mr.Murthy is the author of the piece, and wishes to have that known, he should put a sentence to that effect under the section heading "Author", not in "References"
