Englishअपद् Tatpur. m. f. n. (-त्-त्-त्) (ved.) Going on a road
which does not exist or which is unknown. [In the passage
in which this word occurs, Śatap. XIV. 8. 15. 10., it is an
epithet of गायत्री, which for mystical reasons has been
called previously एकपदी ‘one-footed’, द्विपदी ‘two-footed’,
त्रिपदी ‘three-footed’ and चतुष्पदी ‘four-footed’
Dwiveda-
ganga on the Śatapathabr. explains अपद् ‘because a पद i. e.
by what she may be known does not exist’--पद्यसे ज्ञा-
यसे येन तत्पदं न विद्यते यस्याः सा त्वमपदसि--
but ac-
cording to this gloss अपद् would be a Bahuvr., while its
accent--the udātta on the first syllable--assigns it to
the class of Tatpur. compounds. The interpretation of Śan-
kara on the same passage in the Bṛhadār. seems therefore
preferable: अविद्यमानं पदं येन पद्यसे सा त्वमपदसि ‘thou
art अपद् because thou goest on a road which does not
exist or which is unknown’.--In no case can the word
mean ‘footless’, for its form would then be अपदी and its
accent the udātta on the penultima.--Bahuvr. forms
like अपदे, अपदी &c. belong to the base अपाद् q. v., not
to a base अपद्.] E. अ neg. and पद् (with an ellipsis of पद).
