Pronunciation

Noun

आता • (ā́tā) stemf

  1. the frame of a door
    • c. 1500 BCE – 1000 BCE, Ṛgveda 9.5.5:
      उद्आतैर्जिहते बृहद्द्वारो देवीर्हिरण्ययीः।
      पवमानेन सुष्टुताः॥
      udātairjihate bṛhaddvāro devīrhiraṇyayīḥ.
      pavamānena suṣṭutāḥ.
      The golden, the Celestial Doors are lifted with their frames on high,
      By Pavamana glorified.
      NB. that in this quotation, the feminine noun is, extremely bizarrely, declined as a masculine instrumental plural in -aiḥ (<-air> before a voiced consonant). The expected form is ā́tābhiḥ.
