Thank you

Also, there is the Dukkha Sutta, which Thanissaro translates according to the Commentary Tradition as follows:

"There are these three forms of dukkha, my friend: the dukkha of pain, the dukkha of fabrication, the dukkha of change.

These are the three forms of dukkha."
However, I would translate it as follows:
‘‘Tisso imā, āvuso, dukkhatā. Dukkhadukkhatā, sankhāradukkhatā , viparināmadukkhatā – imā kho, āvuso, tisso dukkhatā’’ti.

"There are these three forms of dukkha, my friend: the dukkha of pain, the dukkha of fabricating, the dukkha of change.

These are the three forms of dukkha."
Personally, my view is it is best to create an understanding of this teaching using our personal experience.

Kind regards
