conc
▪ Today, ṣaydalī is more common than †ṣandalī for ‘chemist, pharmacist’. But ṣaydalī (which still can take the pl. ṣanādilaẗ!) is originally a *‘seller of sandal powder’ (used in medicine) – Rolland2014a. (A variant of †ṣandalī, †ṣandalānī, is attested, for instance, in Wahrmund1887 or, for OttTu, in Redhouse1890 with the meaning ‘dealer in sandal wood, druggist and perfumer’.) Thus, ṣaydalī is based on ↗ṣandal ‘sandal wood’ (which is of ultimately Ind origin).
