the word 'Dhamma' needs to be untranslated, here's why, and it's funny

In AN 10, vaggas 12-15,


The noble eightfold path, + 2 more factors right freedom and right knowledge, are referred to as "10 dharmas" several times in these 30 suttas.

Now the funny thing is, B. Sujato translates 'dhamma' 4 different ways in these 4 vaggas, all referring to those same 10 factors, within a span of a few suttas from each other.

AN 10.112 An Adept (2nd) (dhamma = 'qualities')

112. Dutiyaasekhasutta	112. An Adept (2nd)
“Dasayime, bhikkhave, asekhiyā dhammā.	“monks, there are ten qualities of an adept.

ime kho, bhikkhave, dasa asekhiyā dhammā”ti.	These are the ten qualities of an adept.”

AN 10.122. The Ending of Defilements (Dhamma = "thing")

122. Āsavakkhayasutta	122. The Ending of Defilements

Sammādiṭṭhi, sammāsaṅkappo, sammāvācā, sammākammanto, sammāājīvo, sammāvāyāmo, sammāsati, sammāsamādhi, sammāñāṇaṃ, sammāvimutti—	Right view, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right rememberfulness, right undistractible-lucidity, right knowledge, and right freedom.

AN 10.135 The Teaching of the Noble Ones (dhamma = "teaching")

135. Ariyadhammasutta	135. The Teaching of the Noble Ones
“Ariyadhammañca vo, bhikkhave, desessāmi anariyadhammañca.	“monks, I will teach you the teaching of the noble ones, and what is not the teaching of the noble ones. …

ayaṃ vuccati, bhikkhave, ariyo dhammo”ti.	This is called the teaching of the noble ones.”

AN 10.140. Blameworthy (dhamma = "principle")

140. Sāvajjasutta	140. Blameworthy
“Sāvajjañca vo, bhikkhave, dhammaṃ desessāmi anavajjañca.	“I will teach you the blameworthy principle and the blameless principle. …

Micchādiṭṭhi … pe … micchāvimutti—	Wrong view, wrong thought, wrong speech, wrong action, wrong livelihood, wrong effort, wrong rememberfulness, wrong undistractible-lucidity, wrong knowledge, and wrong freedom.

ayaṃ vuccati, bhikkhave, anavajjo dhammo”ti.	This is called the blameless principle.”

It's not 'wrong' to translate it 4 ways like that, but...

there's a great English word in the dictionary for that, and it works much better.
The word is 'Dharma':

☸Dharma, dharma

(Oxford English Dictionary, curly brace{} comment added by me)

(1) {Dharma:} (in Indian religion) the eternal and inherent nature of reality, regarded in Hinduism as a cosmic law underlying right behaviour and social order.

(1.1) {☸Dharma:} (in Buddhism) the nature of reality regarded as a universal truth taught by the Buddha; the teaching of Buddhism.

(1.2) {dharma:} An aspect of truth or reality. ‘all dharmas are forms of emptiness’

Origin: Sanskrit, literally ‘decree or custom’.

There's already an accepted, widely used and understood English word, that straddles all 4 translations of 'principles, teachings, things, qualities', so why not use it?
