Question on the translation of "dukkhanirodhagāminī paṭipadā ariyasaccaṁ"

Hello @sujato,

This question, of course, relates to Norman’s paper on the grammatical irregularities in SN56.11. My question is more specific. The word paṭipadā is in apposition to ariyasaccaṁ. In English we can’t say that a path is a truth, although we can say that it is true. What is going on grammatically here?

David.
