Refernce Work on Word-Derivations

[Guest guest]

Dear List:

 

I am looking for a modern work, preferably in English or Hindi which

focusses on prakriyas.

 

This work should show the rupa-sidhi of padas listing the various sutras in

a neat mathematical form just like in algebra where everything is shown

step-by step.

 

I am not referring to works like the Kaumudis because they carry too much

detail.

 

I want something designed for quick reference and shouldnt make me strain

for searching .

 

An example will be,

 

Rupa-Sidhi of pathati

 

paTh bhUvAdayo dhAtavaH

paTh + laT vartamane Lat

path + la halantyam; tasya itaH

paTh + l updeshe achaanunAsika it

paTh + l lasya; tip-tas-jhi-....-vahi-mahing; shashthi sthane yoga

laH parasmaipadam

tangAnau Atmanepadam....eka-shesh adhikAra

AkaDArAt ekA sanjna

tingas tInI tInI pratham....

tanyehavacana..

yusmadyupapade

asmadyuuttamaH

sheshe prathamah

paTh + tip halantyam

paTh + ti etc.........

 

The ideal book will be full of pages such as above with maximum attention

given to the tabular form with a ready-reference appeal.

 

The Ashtadhyayi Translation by Ram Nath Sharma has a huge appendix devoted

to derivational History but its chief disadvaantage is it in not tabular

like above and you have to spend time reading which makes it very

complicated.

 

Sincerely,

 

Chetan Pandey

 

PS: Book-Sellers on the List, I will appreciate your feedback also as I

prefer recieving books at home.
