The Pali Text Society's Pali-English Dictionary

Sa&a [most likely=Sk. $ada (fall), fr. $ad to fall; Kern Toev. s. v. equals it to Sk. s(ta (or s%ta) of s% (or su) to
run (to impel), as in ussa&a and visa&a. The Dhtm (789) gives a root sa& in meaning of "visara*a," i. e.
profusion, diffusion (cp. visa&a)] a fall, a heap of things fallen; only in cpd. pa**a˚ a heap of fallen leaves
M i.21 (=pa**a -- kacavara MA i.120); J ii.271.
Sa&&ha
Sa&&ha [pp. of sajati1] dismissed; in cpd. -- ˚esana one who has abandoned all longing or research D iii.269
(cp. Dial. iii.247 "has utterly given up quests"); A ii.41 (so read for sa&h˚). -- sa&&ha at S iii.84 is to be read
se&&ha, and at S iv.298 sa&ha.
Sa&&hi
Sa&&hi (num. ord.) [cp. Sk. +a+&i: see cha] sixty D i.45; ii.261; Sn 538; DhA iii.412 (ek(na˚). It is found
mostly in the same application as cha (group -- number), e. g. at J i.64 (˚turiya -- sahass!ni); VvA 92 (id.); J
i.87 (˚yojana); vi.512 (˚sahassa); DhA i.8, 17, 26, 131 (˚saka&a). -- ˚h!yana 60 years old (of elephant) M
i.229; J ii.343.
Sa&&hu'
Sa&&hu' at J vi.185 (ta' asakkhi sa&&hu') is inf. of sajati1 (s%j=Sk. sra+&u') to dismiss, let loose. The form
has caused trouble, since the Com. explains it with ga*hitu' "to take." This has induced Kern (Toev. s. v.)
to see in it a very old (even pre -- Vedic!) form with *s!.hu' as original. Evidently he derives it fr. sah
(Epic Sk. so.hu'!), as he trsls it as "to master, overpower. "
Sa&ha
Sa&ha (adj.) [cp. Sk. $a&ha] crafty, treacherous, fraudulent D ii.258; iii.246; M i.32, 153; S iv.299; A ii.41;

Sa*a
Sa*a (nt.) [Vedic $a*a; Gr. ka/nnabis=Lat. cannabis; Ags haenep=E. hemp; Ger. hanf.] a kind of hemp D
ii.350 (v. l.); S i.115 (do.); cp. s!*a1 & s!*". -- dhovika [perhaps (Kern's suggestion) s!*a˚ (v. l.)= vis!*a˚?]
name of a particular kind of gambol of elephants in water M i.229, 375. Bdhgh at DA i.84 uses the obscure
term s!*a -- dhovana -- k")! to denote a trick of Ca*.!las. But see sandhovika.
