Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionaryNipadāmase, at J. III, 120 is an old misreading & is to be corrected into nipatāmase (=let us gather, bring together=dedicate), unless it be read as nipphadāmase (=do, set forth, prepare, give), in spite of Com. explanation p. 121: nikārapakārā (=nipaccakārā?) upasaggā (upasajja?) dāmase (dā) ti attho; endorsed by Müller, P. G. p. 97 & Kern, Toev. p. 175. It cannot be ni+pa+ dāmase, since ni is never used as secondary (modifying) verb-component (see ni° A 2), & Bdhgh’s explanation is popular etym. Cp. nipatāmase at J. IV, 361 (see nipatati). (Page 360)
