________________ ( 19 ) (1) DUVE (gà) This word not only shows number of kavoya but also of kayoya sarira. So this does not mean two kavoyas but two preparations of kavoys. If kavoy is meant as a kind of a bird, then you cannot adjust duve with kavoya and sarira because the whole pigeon cannot be cooked and if different parts of the bird are cooked it would not be interpreted as the prepration of two birds, and then kavoya or sarira would be rendered redundant. If kavoya is interpreted to mean some sort of fruit then only Duve and sarira would prove appropriate. Kavoya is a fruit and the preperation is made of two fruits. This would adjust the construction and meaning properly. So it must be admitted that kavoya does not mean any bird but a kind of a fruit. This is proved by the use of the word Duve, and here lies the importance of the word duve. (2) KAVOYA (कवोय) Kavoya is an eatable vegetable. This is available in a complete form and can be retained for a long time. Internal heat, bile-fever, impurities of blood, and dysentry are remedied with this fruit. Kapota is the synonym of kaPage Navigation
