Built from
From Pali ṭīkā (“sub-commentary”); perhaps via Old Khmer ṭīkā (“clarification; commentary; decree; explanation; instruction; order; etc”). Cognate with Modern Khmer ដីកា (dəykaa). From clipping of ศาลฎีกา (sǎan-dii-gaa), from ศาล (sǎan, “court”) + ฎีกา (dii-gaa, “petition (submitted to a monarch); final appeal”).
