aṃśú, m., Name der Pflanze, aus welcher der Soma gepresst wurde. Sie wird häufig mit der Kuh verglichen, aus welcher der Somasaft herausgemolken wird (so {397,4}; {137,3}; {629,19}; {819,12}; {204,1}; {282,2}; {920,8} u. s. w.). Dann aber wird der Name auch beibehalten, um den herausgepressten Saft (dugdhás aṃśús {270,6}; {390,1}; {614,1}) zu bezeichnen. Einmal ({625,26}) erscheint er auch als Eigenname eines Sängers. Von der spätern Bedeutung: Sonne, Sonnenglanz, Sonnenstrahl zeigt sich nur in sumád-aṃśu ({100,16}) eine Spur. Also: 1) Somapflanze, 2) der aus ihr gepresste Somasaft, 3) Eigenname eines Sängers. Zwischen 1) und 2) finden mannichfache Uebergänge statt; ja strenggenommen ist bei der zweiten stets die erste als Grundbedeutung festzuhalten und im Bewusstsein der Dichter lebendig. Vgl. die Beiwörter madirá, mádhumat, tigmá, sutá, vṛ́ṣan, ukṣán und die Genetiven mádhvas, mádhunas, sómasya.
