khāṇḍaḍōha (खांडडोह) [or हो, hō].—m An interrupted ḍōha or deep part in a river; a break of the deep water in the form of a dry bank or a shoal. The word is asserted to signify also A deep part here and there; and this double sense is explicated by accepting the word as meaning indifferently Intermission or break (khāṇḍa) of the deep water (ḍōha) or by the deep water--a break of the stream by a shoal or of the general shallowness by a deep. This acceptation, however, is erroneous: khāṇḍaḍōha is simply An interrupted ḍōha. Gen. used pl & v paḍa. See an observation under khānōrī cōra.
