sukkaṁsaṁ

sukkasaṁ

accusative singular of sukkasaṁ (possible corruption or non-standard form; closest attested: sukkhaṁ 'happiness, pleasure' or sukkaṁ 'dried')

  1. (if sukkaṁ) dried, withered
  2. (if sukhaṁ) happiness, ease, pleasure

Analysis. The form 'sukkaṁsaṁ' appears to conflate or corrupt two words. If read as sukkasaṁ, it is not attested; likely candidates are sukkhaṁ (accusative of sukha 'happiness') or sukkaṁ (accusative of sukka 'dried'). Without the source context, resolution is uncertain.
