Sanskrit edit

Etymology edit

Compare यदा (yadā), कदा (kadā). First element from Proto-Indo-European *to-. If it is a direct cognate of Lithuanian tadà (“then”), it should reflect a PIE word *todéh₂ (“then”),^[1] but this presents phonetic issues: see kadà.

Pronunciation edit

(Vedic) IPA^(key): /tɐ.dɑː/
(Classical) IPA^(key): /ˈt̪ɐ.d̪ɑː/

Adverb edit

तदा • (tadā)

then
