abaddhamukha

E. abaddha unbound, and mukha the mouth.

abusive, scurrilous. (Amarak.: durmukhe mukharābaddhamukhau; Rā-

yam., Bhānud. &c.: durninditaṃ mukhamasya.) ² Mendacious,

false, untrue (according to Vallabhagaṇi's interpretation of

durmukhe &c. in Hemach.: viruddhabhāṣināmāni trīṇi . labāḍa

iti bhāṣā); it seems doubtful, however whether the latter

comm. is correct and whether it is not preferable to restrict

the sense of the word to the interpretation given by the

commentators of the Amarak. (A meaning ‘talkative’ lent

to this word is devoid of authority.) E. abaddha and mukha.

mfn. (-khaḥ-khā-khaṃ) Foulmouthed, scurrilous.

E. abaddha unbound, and
