Perhaps to be corrected (vimraştāraḥ). See also the list of words with suffix -ka, below. There are some very rare words, and words which occur only in Jain texts. Thus: dittha and davittha, ‘X and Y, as names of irrelevant persons, 3. 58: sa eva puruṣaḥ sārthanāmā çeşās tu bibhrati, svākhyāṁ qitthaļavitthādiçabdā iva nirarthikām, “That man alone (namely, he who carries perfection to the highest point) has the name "Successful' (Sārtha); the rest carry their names senselessly, like names of the class Dittha and Davittha.' Cf. Weber, Ind. Stud. xiii. 421. jalāçaya – jaļāçaya, 'foolishness,' in tyaktākhilajalāçayaḥ,'having given up all foolishness,' 1., 29; jalāçaya = jaļāçaya occurs once or twice in Kathās. ajanani, non-birth' (curse word), 1. 182. hīlanā, injury,' 6. 434.

The word occurs in Pariçiştaparvan 2. 8, 144, 496, and is listed in Hemacandra's Deçīnāmamālā 2. 20, and 90 (here nīrangi); Samarād. 4. 555 also has nīrañgi. Tawney, Translation of Kathākoça, p. xxiii, quotes nīrañgi as a Prākrit word. v chut, “escape,' 1. 175, in tava bāņapraharataḥ katham chutye, how shall I escape from the blow of thy arrow. The word occurs in the expression, samkatāc chuțitaḥ (or chuţțitaḥ), escaped from danger,' in Prabandhacintāmaņi, p. 20; see Tawney's Translation, p. 13, note 4; in the same sense in Samarād. 9. 234, and in Räuhiņeya Carita 365. Weber, Pañcadaņdachattraprabandha, p. 26 emends effectively budhyate to chutyate: kathaṁ chutyate tasyāḥ
