valaj + e
tracks; traces; uses; spends; resorts to
Valañjeti [customarily explained as ava + lañj (cf. Geiger P.Gram §66.1), the root lañj being given as a Sanskrit root in meaning "to fry," "to be strong," and a variety of {603} others (see Monier Williams sub voce lañj). But the root and its derivations are only found in lexicographical and grammatical works, therefore it is doubtful whether it is genuine. lañja is given as "pada," i.e. track, place, foot, and also "tail." We are inclined to see in lañj a by-form of lañch, which is a variant of lakṣ "to mark" etc. (cf. lañcha, lañchaka, °ana, °ita). Thus the meaning would range from originally "trace," mark off, enclose, to: "being enclosed," assigned or belonging to, i.e. moving (in), frequenting etc., as given in commentarial explainations. There seems to be a Singalese word at the root of it, as it is certainly dialectical. — Dhātum (522) laconically defines valañj as "valañjane"] 1. to trace, track, travel (a road); practise, achieve, resort to Miln 359; Vv-a 58. 2. to use, use up, spend Ja I 102; III 342; VI 369, 382, 521. — present participle passive (a-)valañjiyamāna (not any longer) in use Ja I 111. — past participle valañjita.
