Dear friends and Mahadeswara ji,

Kannada names for Litsea coriacea are: erchikooti and muja
Etymology of erchikooti (muscle binder) as the leaves are much used to heal muscle torsion.
Reference: Shodhganga Medicinal plants of Tulunadu

Would it be written in Kannada script thus: ಎರ್ಚಿಕೂಟ್ಟಿ and ಮುಜ ... I could not see any satisfactory results in search for ಎರ್ಚಿಕೂಟ್ಟಿ / ಮುಜ

Please validate ಎರ್ಚಿಕೂಟ್ಟಿ and ಮುಜ


Regards.
Dinesh

Thank you very very much for validating the names, and rendering them in native script.
Regards.
Dinesh

Dear Dinesh ji,
For me the  the word  should be written as ಎರ್ಚಿ ಕೂಟಿ   .
erchikooti   =  ಎರ್ಚಿ ಕೂಟಿ   (Erchi meaning  muscle and  kooti  meaning 
 ' which joins' a binder).

The other word ಮುಜ  is correctly written.
With regards,

M.Swamy
