Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryApavivāra (अपविवार).—adj., not characterized by wide opening of the mouth passage in speech (see vivāra in [Boehtlingk and Roth]): Gaṇḍavyūha 401.4 °raḥ, said of the Buddha as possessing the lakṣaṇa siṃha- hanutā; in the same passage he is called su-niṣpīḍihanuḥ, see niṣpīḍin, which confirms the meaning as stated. Evidently his speech was tight, not loose.
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.
