Peyya²

= piya, only in compounds vajja˚; kindness of language, kind speech, one of the 4 sangaha-vatthus (grounds of popularity) AN.ii.32, AN.ii.248; AN.iv.219, AN.iv.364; DN.iii.190, DN.iii.192, DN.iii.232; Ja.v.330. Cp. BSk. priya-vādya Mvu.i.3; and -vācā kind language DN.iii.152; Vv.84#36 (= piyavacana Vv-a.345)
■ It is doubtful whether vāca-peyya at Snp.303 (Ep. of sacrifice) is the same as ˚vācā (as adj.), or whether it represents vāja-peyya [Vedic vāja sacrificial food] as Bdhgh explains it at Snp-a.322 (= vājam ettha pivanti; variant reading vāja˚), thus peyya peyya¹.
