(praGarati, praGarati)
pragharati¦ (praggh°? below; see gharati; Pali paggharati, which because of the double ggh is customarily associated with Skt. kṣar-, Geiger 56.2; even Skt., and still more BHS, has forms which at least look as if they came from a root ghṛ-, ghar-, see Wh. Roots and BR; cf. also parighareti), flows forth: °ti Mvy 6967 (here v.l. praggha- rati, and so Mironov; the only trace in BHS tradition of the double ggh); Divy 57.21; 409.1; Śikṣ 249.7; Av i.202.13; Karmav 66.4. See also prākharati (pra°?). It may be, perhaps, that the BHS forms of ghar- (not in Pali) origin- ated as simplex back-formations from MIndic paggharati, and that pragharati (instead of praggh°) was influenced by gharati.How are the Skt. forms to be interpreted? Uhlenbeck connects them with ghṛta, ghee.
