The Pali Text Society's Pali-English Dictionary

Pavu&! at M i.518 is unexplained. The reading of this word is extremely doubtful at all passages. The vv. ll.
at M i.518 are pavudh!, pavuj!, pa&uv!, *phut!, and the C. expln is pavu&!=ga*&hik! (knot or block?). The
identical passage at D i.54 reads pa&uv! (q. v.), with vv. ll. pamu&!, pamuvuc!, while DA i.164 expls pacu&!
=ga*&hik! (vv. ll. pamu&!, pamuc!, papu&!). Dial. i.72 reads pacu&a, but leaves the word untranslated;
Franke, D"gha, p. 58 ditto.

Pavuttha
Pavuttha [pp. of pavasati] dwelling or living abroad, staying away from home D ii.261 (˚j!ti one who
dwells away from his caste, i. e. who no longer belongs to any caste); J v.434; DhA iii.293. Freq. in phrase
pavutthapatik! itthi a woman whose husband dwells abroad Vin ii.268; iii.83; Miln 205.
Pav(sita
Pav(sita at VvA 237 is misreading either for pav!sita or (more likely) for padh(pita (as v. l. SS.), in
meaning "blown" i. e. scented, filled with scent.
Pavekkhati
Pavekkhati is fut. pavisati.
Pavecchati
Pavecchati [most likely (as suggested by Trenckner, Notes 61) a distortion of payacchati (pa+yam) by way
of *payecchati>pavecchati (cp. sa -- yath!> seyyath!). Not with Morris, J.P.T.S. 1885, 43 fr. pa+v%+, nor
with Müller P.Gr. 120 fr. pa+vi+ (who with this derivation follows the P. Commentators, e. g. J iii.12
pavesati, deti; SnA 407 (pavesati pa&ip!deti); Geiger P.Gr. § 152, note 3 suggests (doubtfully) a Fut. stem
(of vi$?)] to give, bestow S i.18; Sn 463 sq., 490 sq.; Th 2, 272; J i.28; iii.12 (v. l. pavacchati), 172; iv.363;

ii.970 (=pavatteti ibid. 139); ii.107 (=deti ibid. 144); Miln 375. another dern suggested by Dr. Barnett in
J.R.A.S. 1924, 186 is=Sk. pra -- v%$cati.
