[Buddha-l] Pali for Teacher

[Chris Ward]

Acariya is mentioned in some forest sangha sources as pali for  'teacher'
and seems to be linked with 'achan' and 'ajahn', honorifics for longer term
monastics. However, acariya is not in the pali- English dictionary (Rhys
Davids and Stede). If acariya does not mean teacher, what pali word does?
