Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionaryAtricchā, (f.) (Sk. *atṛptyā, a + tṛpt + yā, influenced by Desid. titṛpsati, so that atricchā phonetically rather corresponds to a form *a. -tṛpsyā (cch = psy, cp. P. chāta Sk. psāta). For the simple Sk. tṛpti see titti (from tappati2). According to Kern, but phonetically hardly justifiable it is Sk. atīccha = ati + icchā “too much desire”, with r in dissolution of geminated tt, like atraja for attaja. See also atriccha adj. and cp. J. P. T. S. 1884, 69) great desire, greed, excessive longing, insatiability J. IV, 5, 327. (Page 25)
