(praRAmayati, praRAmayati, °meti)
praṇāmayati, °meti¦ (in mgs. 1 and 2 = Pali paṇā- meti; cf. also abhi-praṇam°), (1) with object añjali, makes (a gesture of reverence); so also praṇamya and praṇamayya, see s.v. praṇamati; was the lit. mg. bends, or extends, holds out, as in (2)?: añjaliṃ praṇāmetvā Mv i.255.12; °liṃ praṇāmayitvā SP 100.5 (prose; so KN with Kashgar rec., Nep. mss. and WT praṇamya); Mv iii.97.9; praṇāmehi añjaliṃ Mv iii.358.2; (2) holds out, holds forth, extends, e.g. a hand or arm: hasto praṇāmito Mv ii.450.3, the hand was extended (to pluck flowers); (ekaśṛṅgasya hastaṃ) praṇāmi (aor.) Mv iii.147.19, held out her hand to E.; (bāhā) praṇāmitā iii.313.13; also a bowl, pātraṃ… praṇāmaye (aor.) Mv i.303.14, held out his bowl (for inspec- tion); so in Pali, pattaṃ paṇāmetvā Vin. ii.216.11 means holding out his bowl (with his right hand; wrongly PTSD and SBE 20.88, 290--1); (3) gives, furnishes, provides (in this sense app. not in Pali, but AMg. and other Pkt. paṇāmai, °mei, offers, Hindi arpaṇ karnā, Ratnach. 3.440 and Sheth 652), doubtless as specialization of holds out towards: so app. dhārmyāṃ kathāṃ praṇāmaye (aor.) Mv iii.446.9, presented, gave a sermon; possibly daṇḍo praṇā- mayitavyo Mv ii.457.3, punishment must be given (i.e. administered, meted out), but here v.l. pradāpayitavyā (for °vyo), must be caused to be given. (In LV 172.2 (vs) kāyu praṇāmi (prob. verb, aor., not noun with Senart Mv i note 427; Tib. lus btud) bowed your body, the mg. is substantially Skt.)
