accusative singular neuter adjective
Etymology. Perhaps cognate with Sanskrit gabhīra and an Indo-European root *gwembh- meaning depth or cavity, though the connection is uncertain. The word captures the spatial sense of descending far down, then extended to profundity of meaning (as in gambhīradhammatā, the profundity of the Dhamma).
