पक्वतैल (pakvataila)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
pakva-taila (cf. Pali telaṃ pakkaṃ, Dhp. comm. 〔i.12.8〕, oil has been prepared, lit. cooked, sc. to be used as ointment), prepared oil (ointment?): te dāni °lena bhagavantaṃ nimantrayetsuḥ Mv 〔iii.329.14〕. The corresp. Pali cpd. seems to be pāka-tela
e.g. Dhp. comm. 〔iii.311.8—9〕 sata-pāka-telena, with oil a hundred times refined (Burlingame, HOS 〔30.105〕). Is -āk- here for -akk- by the Morengesetz ? The form to be expected is Pali pakka = pakva.
