Yuñjati [Vedic yunakti, yuñjati & yuñkte, yuj; cp. Gr. zeu/gnumi, Lat, jungo to unite, put together (pp.
junctus=Sk. yukta, cp. E. junct -- ion); Lith. jùngin. The Idg. root *i!eug is an enlarged form of *i!e9e "to
unite," as in Sk. yanti, yuvati, pp. yuta; f. yuti, to which also Lat. j(s=P. y(sa. The Dhtp gives several (lit. &
fig.) meanings of yuj, viz. "yoge" (No. 378), "sam!dhimhi" (399), "sa'gamane" (550)] (lit.) to yoke; (fig.)
to join with (instr. or loc.), to engage in (loc.), to exert oneself, to endeavour. All our passages show the
applied meaning, while the lit. meaning is only found in the Caus. yojeti. -- Often expld by and coupled
with the syn. gha&ati & v!yamati, e.g. at J iv.131; v.369; DhA iv.137. -- Forms: pres. yuñjati Dh 382; J
v.369; 2nd pl. yuñjatha Th 2, 346 (k!mesu;=niyojetha ThA 241); ppr. yuñjanto J iv.131 (kamma&&h!ne);
imper. yuñja S i.52 (s!sane); ThA 12; med. imper. yuñjassu Th 2, 5. -- Pass. yujjati (in grammar or logic) is
constructed or applied, fits (in), is meant KhA 168; SnA 148, 403, 456. -- Caus. I. yojeti & II. yoj!peti
(q.v.). -- pp. yutta.
Yuta
Yuta [pp. of yu, yauti to fasten but Dhtp 338: "missane"] fastened to (loc.), attracted by, bent on, engaged
in D. i.57 (sabba -- v!r"˚); Sn 842 (pesu*eyye; Nd1 233 reads yutta in exegesis, do. at p. 234, with further
expln !yutta, payutta etc.), 853 (atim!ne); D!vs v.18 (dhiti˚). -- Note. yuta is doubtful in phrase tejas! --
yuta in Niraya passage at A i.142=M iii.183=Nd1 405=Nd2 304iii =J v.266. The more likely reading is
either tejas' !yuta (so BSk. M.Vastu 9), or tejas! yutta (so Nd2 & PvA 52), i. e. endowed with, furnished
with, full of heat. -- We find a similar confusion between uyyuta & uyyutta.
Yutta
Yutta [pp. of yuñjati; Vedic yukta, cp. Lat. junctus, Gr. zeukto/s, Lith. jùnktas] 1. (lit.) yoked, harnessed
(to= loc.) Pv i.114 (catubbhi yutta ratha); Mhvs 35, 42 (go*! rathe yatt!); DhA i.24 (dhure yutt! balivadd!).

(=ala'); PvA 74. -- 5. proper, right PvA 159. -- 6. due to ( -- ˚, with a grd., apparently superfluous) J iii.208
(!sankitabba˚); cp. yuttaka. -- 7. (nt.) conjunction, i. e. of the moon with one or other constellation Vin
ii.217. -- ayutta not fit, not right, improper PvA 6 (perhaps delete), 64. -- suyutta well fit, right proper, opp.
duyutta unbefitting, in phrase suyutta' duyutta' !cikkhati J i.296 (here perhaps for dur -- utta?). du˚ also lit.
"badly fixed, not in proper condition, in a bad state" at J iv.245 (of a gate). -- k!ra acting properly PvA 66. -

Yuttaka
Yuttaka (adj.) ( -- ˚) [fr. yutta] proper, fit (for); nt. what is proper, fitness: dhamma -- yuttaka' katheti to
speak righteous speech J iv.356. -- Usually combd with a grd., seemingly pleonastically (like yutta), e. g.
k!tabba˚ what had to be done PvA 81; DhA i.13 (as kattabba˚); !pucchitabba˚ fit to be asked DhA i.6.
Yutti
Yutti [cp. Vedic yukti connection, fr. yuj] "fitting," i. e. 1. application, use Miln 3 (opamma˚). -- 2. fitness,
v!da˚, KVA 37; in instr. yuttiy! in accordance with Mhvs 10, 66 (vacana˚); Sdhp 340 (sutti˚); and abl.
yuttito Sdhp 505. -- 3. (logical) fitness, right construction, correctness of meaning; one of the 16 categories
(h!r!), appld to the exposition of texts, enumd in the 1st section of the Netti; e. g. at Nett 1 -- 3, 103; KhA
18; SnA 551, 552. Thus abl. yuttito by way of correctness or fitness (contrasted to suttato) VbhA 173=
Vism 562; and yutti -- vasena by means of correctness (of meaning) SnA 103 (contrasted to anussava). -- 4.
trick, device, practice J vi.215. -- kata combined with; (nt.) union, alloy VvA 13.
