Etymology

From Pali rājapaṇḍita (literally king's scholar), from rāja (king) + rāja (scholar); ultimately from Sanskrit राजपण्डित (rājapaṇḍita, idem), from राज (rāja) + पण्डित (paṇḍita); probably via Old Khmer rājapaṇḍita, rājapaṇdita (scholar in the service of a king), from rāja + paṇḍita, paṇdita; equivalent to Thai ราช (râat) +‎ บัณฑิต (ban-dìt). Cognate with Modern Khmer រាជបណ្ឌិត (réachbândĭt).
