Etymology
[edit]In addition to the derivation as the past participle of sakkaroti, composed sat (“good”) + kata (“done”), in the sense of 'Sanskrit' it is mostly also a calque of Sanskrit संस्कृत (saṃskṛta) as sa- + kata.
Adjective
[edit]sakkata
- past participle of sakkaroti (“to honour”)
- Sanskrit
- c. 500 AD, Kaccāyana, Pālivyākaraṇaṃ [Pali Grammar][1] (overall work in Pali), page 6; republished as Satish Chandra Acharyya Vidyabhusana, editor, Kaccayana's Pali Grammar (edited in Devanagari character and translated into English), Calcutta, Bengal: Mahabodhi Society, 1901:
- या च पन सक्कतगन्थेसु समञ्ञा घोसाति वाघोसाति वा ता पयोगे सति एत्थापि पयुज्जते
- Yā ca pana sakkataganthesu samaññā ghosāti vāghosāti vā tā payoge sati etthāpi payujjate.
- And moreover that designation either 'voiced' or 'unvoiced' which is in Sanskrit texts is applied even here when there is occasion.
