2) To be pardoned or forgiven.

Kṣamaṇīya (क्षमणीय).—adj. or subst. nt. (= Pali khamanīya, Vin. i.59.10, also with yāpanīya), tolerable, endurable (condition): Saddharmapuṇḍarīka 429.4, see s.v. yāpanīya. Both this form and kṣemaṇīya(-tara, q.v.) are used in what is clearly the same locution, bracketed with yāpanīya; kṣam° is supported by Pali khamanīya, but kṣemaṇīya-pṛccha, q.v., supports kṣem°. Etymologically both forms can be justified in a way, but kṣemaṇīya looks strange as a derivative of kṣema (premaṇīya is not a perfect parallel) and may be a blend of kṣamaṇīya with kṣema. Or is it a direct imitation of premaṇīya, a near-synonym?

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.
