Vodāsa [?] only at D iii.43 in phrase ˚ŋ āpajjati in meaning of "making a distinction," being particular (about food: bhojanesu), having a dainty appetite; expld by "dve bhāge karoti" Bdhgh. It seems to stand for vokāra, unless we take it to be a misspelling for vodāya "cutting off," fr. vi+ava+dā, thus "separating the food" (?): Suggestive also is the likeness with vosānaŋ āpajjati.
