Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionaryLaṅghamayā, (pl.) at J. V, 408 is problematic. We should expect something like laṅghiyo or laṅghimayā in meaning “deer, ” as it is combined with eneyyaka. The C. reads laṅghimayā (“like deer; jumping”?) & explains by nānā-ratana-mayā “made of var. jewels, ” rather strange. (Page 579)
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.
