249.
Nibbujjhati
Nibbujjhati [ni+yujjhati, yudh. P!li form difficult to explain: niy˚=niyy˚= nivv˚=nibb˚] to wrestle, to fight
with fists Vin iii.180. -- pp. nibbuddha.
Nibbuta
Nibbuta (adj.) [Nibbuta represents Sk. nirv%ta (e. g. Av- i.48) as well as niv%ta, both pp. of v%, which in
itself combines two meanings, as exhibited in cognate languages and in Sk. itself: (a) Idg. 9er to cover,
cover up (Lat. aperio=*apa -- veri!o to cover up, Sk. varutram upper garment, "cover") and (b) *9el to
resolve, roll, move (Lat. volvo=revolve; Gr. e(/lic, e)lu/w; Sk. v!*a reed=Lat. ulva; Sk. (rmi wave; P. valli
creeper, valita wrinkled). *9er is represented in P. by e. g. vivarati to open, niv!reti to cover, obstruct,
n"vara*a, niv!ra*a obstruction; *9el by !vuta, khandh -- !v!ra, pariv!ra, vy!va&a (busy with=moving
about), sampariv!reti. Thus we gain the two meanings combd and used promiscuously in the one word
because of their semantic affinity: (a) *niv%ta covered up, extinguished, quenched, and (b) *nirv%ta without
movement, with motion finished (cp. ni&&hita), ceasing, exhaustion, both represented by P. nibbuta. -- In
derivations we have besides the rootform v% (=P. bbu˚) that with gu*a vH (cp. Sk. v!rayati, vr!yati) or
vr!=P.* bb!˚ (with which also cp. pa&iv!*a=*prativ!ra*a). The former is in nibbuti (ceasing, extinction,
with meaning partly influenced by nibbu&&hi=Sk. nirv%+&i pouring of water), the latter in instr. nibb!ti and
nibb!yati (to cease or to go out) and trs. nibb!peti (Caus.: to make cease, to stop or cool) and further in
nibb!na (nt. instr. abstr.) (the dying out)] (lit.) extinguished (of fire), cooled, quenched (fig.) desireless
(often with nicch!ta & s"tibh(ta), appeased, pleased, happy. -- (a) (lit.) aggi an!h!ro n. M i.487; Sn 19 (gin"
