Englishlokākhyāna-kathā, Divy 〔304.27〕, and lokākhyāyikā, 26, 29, story-telling about the world. Here a workman tells entertaining stories to his fellow workmen. Certainly not philosophical discussion about (the creation, etc., of) the world, which is the scholastic interpretation of Pali lokakkhāyikā (e.g. DN comm. 〔i.90.32〕
MN comm. 〔iii.223.15〕), adopted in PTSD. I am not sure that this is not late commentarial pedantry
in the canonical and other early Pali texts, so far as I can see, the Pali word might have the mg. which it clearly has in Divy.
