(-ṣṭam) (In Rhetoric.) A species of paronomasia, considered as an alaṅkāra (q. v.) or elegant mode of expression, viz. a connexion of words which admit of a double interpretation, the sentence consisting chiefly of such words (and not of words which would admit but of one sense); an instance is the following verse of the Bhaṭṭik.: bhuvanabharasahānalaṅghyadhāmnaḥ pururuciratnabhṛto gurūrudehān . śramavidhuravilīnakūrmanakrāndadhatamudūḍhabhuvo girīnahīṃśca (scil. jalanidhimagaman), where all the compounds are attributes as well of girīn as of ahīn, according to the double sense in which they may be taken. See śliṣṭa or śleṣa. E. abhinna-pada and śliṣṭa.
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.
