Pali aggi (21)
According to Davids and Stede’s Pali-English Dictionary, the word aggi, related to the Vedic agni and the Latin ignis, primarily means “fire.” It refers to the physical manifestation of fire, including flames, sparks, and instances of conflagration. It is used to denote the sacrificial fire burnt during religious rituals and ceremonies. It is used in compound terms to convey the idea of burning, consuming, and feverish sensations. It originates from the Tamil root akkiṉi through the transformation of akkiṉi > agnί > aggi. The following words, related to Pali aggi, also originate from the Tamil root akkiṉi.
