Amlatā (अम्लता, “sourness”) refers to one of the attributes of pitta (one of the three biological humors, or tridoṣa). Amlatā is characterised by low semen quantity, poor secual desire and maternal ability. Pitta represents the “fire element” of the human body and is situated in the hṛdaya (cardiac region).

context information

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
