สมาทาน
Thai
editEtymology
editFrom Pali samādāna (“taking upon oneself”), from sama (“same; equal; corresponding; etc”) + ādāna (“taking; assuming; accepting etc”); ultimately from Sanskrit समादान (samādāna, “idem”), from सम (sama) + आदान (ādāna); possibly via Old Khmer *samādāna (“to undertake; to take upon or take to (oneself)”); equivalent to Thai สม (sà-má-) + อาทาน.
