Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionarySosīta, at J. I, 390 means either “thoroughly chilled” or “well wetted. ” It is explained as “him’odakena su-sīto suṭṭhu tinto. ” Perhaps we have to read so sīta, or sīna (cp. sīna2), or sinna. The corresponding sotatta (explained as “suriya-santāpena su-tatto”) should then be so tatto. (Page 727)
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.
