Pali-English dictionary
Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionaryApalāsin, (adj.) (apaḷāsin; but spelling altogether uncertain. There seems to exist a confusion between the forms apalāyin, apalāpin & apalāsin, owing to frequent miswriting of s, y, p in MSS. (cp. Nd2 introd. p. XIX.). We should be inclined to give apalāsin, as the lectio difficilior, the preference. The expln. at Pug.22 as “yassa puggalassa ayaṃ paḷāso pahīno ayaṃ vuccati puggalo apaḷāsī” does not help us to clear up the etym. nor the vv. ll.) either “not neglectful, pure, clean” (= apalāpin fr. palāsa chaff, cp. apalāyin at J.V, 4), or “not selfish, not hard, generous” (as inferred from combn. with amakkhin & amaccharin), or “brave, fearless, energetic” (= apalāyin) D.III, 47, cp. Pug.22. See palāsin. (Page 52)
Pali is the language of the Tipiṭaka, which is the sacred canon of Theravāda Buddhism and contains much of the Buddha’s speech. Closeley related to Sanskrit, both languages are used interchangeably between religions.

[Sanskrit to German]
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.
