(also svādanīya, q.v., in same use) only noted in triple dvandva cpd. khādanīya-bhojanīyāsvādanīya (Mv i.38.7 °bhojanīya-āsvādanīyena), in which this third element (after hard food and soft food) may perhaps mean con- diments, or savories; Tib. on LV 2.22 myaṅ ba, to be tasted: LV 2.22 (text corrupt); 58.5--6; Mv i.38.7; Śikṣ 208.2 (Bendall and Rouse to relish).
