Timi [derivation unknown. Sanskrit timi] a large fish, a leviathan; a fabulous fish of enormous size. It occurs always in combination with timiṅgala, in formula timi timiṅgala timitimiṅgala, which should probably be reduced to one simple timitimiṅgala (see next).

Timiṅgala [timi + gila, gl, see note on gala] in combination with timi, timitimiṅgala. Sanskrit has timiṅgila and timiṅgilagila: reduplicated in 2nd syllable where Pāli has reduplicated in 1st; fish-eater, reduplicated as intensive = greedy or monstrous fish-eater, a fabulous fish of enormous size, the largest fish in existence Vin II 238 = A IV 200 = Nidd II §235 3 q; Paṭis II 196; Miln 377. At Ud 54f. and Miln 262 we find the reading timi timiṅgala timirapiṅgala, which is evidently faulty. A Sanskritized form of t. is timitimiṅgala at Divy 502. See timiratipiṅgala, and cf. also the similar Sanskrit cilicima a sort of fish.
