"gaikonarA" is legitimate in usage. The only reason it should be "gaikora" instead is if the former usage violates some rule of prosodic metre (chandassu). Someone knowledgeable in this area could perhaps comment.


Also, never heard "cUTa". Shouldn't it be "cUcuTa" ? There is "cUta" as in "cUtamu".

{1}The word 'gaikonarA' may be grammatically correct but the varnam is sung with the word 'gaikOrA' or in some

patantaram,'cEkOrA'

{2} The word is 'krpayuncuTakidi'

'krpa'+ 'yuncuTaku'+ 'idi'+'krpayuncuTakidi'

{3]the word 'krpayuncUTakidi' was not correctly transliterated.

It should have been 'krpayuncuTakidi'
