( + patiyatta) : vi.294 (Kern's reading for yata; vv. 11.
sagyata & sata. thus warranting yata) ; Miln
373
(°payatta). 378 (id. = in keen effort). — Note. Kern,
Toev. s. V. would like to equal yatta = Sk. yatna effort.
Yattaka (adj.) [fr. yavant, a late formation ; cp. Trenckner,
Notes, 80] however much, whatever, as many (in correlation
with ta° or tattaka) J v. 74 ( = yavant) ; Vism 184
(yattakar) thanar) ganhati . . . tattakar) . . .). 293
(yattaka = yavata) ; DA 1.118 (yattaka . . . tattaka
as long as) ; DhA 11. 50 ("r) kalar) as long), 128
VbhA 73 (yattakai) thanai) . . . tattakag), 391
(yattakani kusala-cittani . . . tesar) sabbesan) ; VvA
1 75 (yattakani . . . tani as many ... so many, i. e.
whatever), 285 (yattaka ahuneyya nama . . . tesu
sabbesu . . .). — instr. yattakena as adv. "because,
on account of " DhA 111.383, 393.
Yattha (adv.) [the regular P. form of Ved. yatra. See
also P. yatra] rel. adv. of place " where," at which spot
with verbs of
motion =" whereto." — D 1.240 (whither); Sn 79, 170
(here closely resemWing yatra in meaning=" so that "),
occasionally " at which time," when ;
191, 313, 445, 995, 1037; Dh 87, 127 (yattha thita, cp.
PvA 104) 150, 171, 193, PvA 27. —yattha va tattha va
wherever (or whenever) DhA iv. 162; similarly yattha
yattha wherever (he likes) A 11.64. yattha kamaij
(cp. yathakamari in same meaning) where to one's
liking, i. e. wherever Dh 35 (=iyattha katthaci or
yattha yattha icchati DhA 1.295, 299), 326. Similarly
we find yatth-icchakar), almost identical (originally
variant ?) with yadicchakar) and yaradicchakar) at
Vism 154.
Yatra (adv.) [the (older ?) reconstituted Sk. form of P.
yattha, cp. Vedic yatra in which, where. The P. form
is younger than the Vedic, as the P. meaning is doubtful
for the V. period. It is merely a differentiation of
forms to mark a special meaning in the sense of a
causal coijjunction, whereas yattha is adv. (of place or
time) only] in which, where, since ; only in phrase
yatra hi nama (in emphatic exclamations) with Fut. ;
" as indeed, inasmuch as, that " S 11.255 (fianabhuta
vata savaka y. h. n. savako fiassati etc.); J 1.59 (dhir-atthu
vata bho jatiya y. h. n. jatassa jara paiiiia-
yissati " woe to birth that old age is to be noticed in

. . . y. h. n. me upajjhayo ceto-parivitakkar) janissati).
