Accusative singular neuter, making the root into an adjective (offered, sacrificed) or a noun (offering, oblation).

Etymology. √hu is cognate with Sanskrit √hu and Greek khyein (to pour), both from Indo-European *gheu- (to pour, pour forth). The underlying sense is pouring—hence offering liquid oblations to fire or deities. The root lives on in related Pali forms like homa (burnt offering).
