Valaya 6i Valina
others (see Mon. Williams s. v. lanj). But the root & its
derivations are only found in lexicographical and grammatical
works, therefore it is doubtful whether it is
genuine, lanja is given as " pada." i. e. track, place,
foot, and also " tail." We are inclined to see in lanj a
by-form of lafich, which is a variant of lakf " to mark "
etc. (cp. laiicha, laiichaka, "ana, "ita). Thus the meaning
would range from originally " trace," mark off,
" being enclosed," assigned or belonging to,
enclose, to :
i. e. moving (in), frequenting etc., as given in C. expl°*.
There seems to be a Singhalese word at the root of it,
as it is certainly dialectical. — The Dhtm (522) laconically
defines valafij as " valaiijane "] i. to trace, track,
travel (a road) practise, achieve, resort to Miln ; 359 ;
VvA 58. — 2. to use, use up, spend J 1.102 ; in. 342 ;
