General definition (in Hinduism)
Source: archive.org: Vedic index of Names and SubjectsEvāvada (एवावद) is regarded by Ludwig1 in a very obscure passage of the Ṛgveda as the name of a singer beside Kṣatra, Manasa, and Yajata. The commentator Sāyaṇa also interprets the word as a proper name. Roth, however, considers it to be an adjective meaning “truthful”.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
