query about palm leaf manuscripts <fwd>

[Puangroi Khamriang]

Dear Doug,

This seems like "aksorn kham" or "tua kham" as Ron Meyers suggested.  Yuu
can translate by comparison to "The Northern Thai Dictionary of Palm-leaf
Manuscript", by Arunrat Wichiankiao et. al., Suriwongse Bookcenter
(¾¨¹Ò¹Ø¡ÃÁÈѾ·ìÅéÒ¹¹Ò ੾ÒФӷÕè»ÃÒ¡®ã¹ãºÅÒ¹  â´Â ÍÃسÃѵ¹ì ÇÔàªÕÂÃà¢ÕÂÇ
áÅФ³Ð  ¨Ñ´¾ÔÁ¾ìã¹ÇâáÒÊà©ÅÔÁ©Åͧ ÷ðð »Õ
àÁ×ͧàªÕ§ãËÁè  ¾È òõóù).

As for the name, 'ngao' is not a name I'd give to my children or any
relatives.  Maybe Shadow relates to the famous 'Phoenix' family with the
likes of, River, Summer, etc.

Regards,
Puangroi
