The blessed Buddha himself denounced the use of Sanskrit to convey Dhamma. Crucial Dhamma words have been corrupted when certain individuals did not listen the noble advise.  The Tripitaka was translated into other languages by "celebrated linguistics" as you have noted. Some are indeed world renoun experts. However they tended to have a bias towards Sanskrit given its prevalance.Have a look around. When was the last time the Buddhist establishment prduced an Arhath? The wrong meanings have taken root. The proposed meaning would be comical only if the established Dhamma machinary is producing results.I hope you understand Sinhala. I urge you to listen to this Dhamma desana to get the full picture.This is very hard to explain because the present meaning is also valid in certain instances.  The deeper meaning of Anicca is needed to go on the path.  So even if you do not accept it now, just keep in mind this issue was raised.  At a later date when you are ready perhaps you could revisit to take another look.<a href="http://www.waharaka.com/mp3/Thilakuna-Danagamu-CD/01-Anichcha_Vigrahaya-1.mp3" target="_blank">-> Analysis of Anicca in depth 1</a><a href="http://www.waharaka.com/mp3/Thilakuna-Danagamu-CD/02-Anichcha_Vigrahaya-2.mp3" target="_blank">-> Analysis of Anicca in depth 2</a><a href="http://www.waharaka.com/mp3/Thilakuna-Danagamu-CD/03-Anichcha_Vigrahaya-3.mp3" target="_blank">-> Analysis of Anicca in depth 3</a></blockquote>
