Langhamay! (pl.) at J v.408 is problematic. We should expect something like langhiyo or langhimay! in
meaning "deer," as it is combd with eneyyaka. The C. reads langhimay! ("like deer; jumping"?) & expls by
n!n! -- ratana -- may! "made of var. jewels," rather strange.
Langh!pana
Langh!pana (nt.) [fr. Caus. of langh] making jump, raising, lifting Vism 143 ("launching").
Langhi (Langh")
Langhi (Langh") (f.) [fr. langh] 1. a kind of deer (?) J vi.537. -- 2. doubtful of meaning & origin in phrase
langh" -- pit!mah! at J ii.363=iii.226: "whose grandfather was a deer, or a jumper" (?); used in
disparagingly addressing a crane. The C. to J ii.363 expls rather strangely as follows: langh" vuccati !k!se
langhanato megho "(a) jumping deer is called the cloud because of its jumping in the air," bal!k! ca n!ma
megha -- saddena gabbha' ga*hant" ti "the cranes conceive by the sound of the cloud," meghasaddo
bal!k!na' pit! megho pit!maho ti "the sound of the cloud is the father of the cranes & the cloud the
grandfather. "
