Anyādṛkṣa (अन्यादृक्ष):—[tatpurusha compound] m. f. n.

(-kṣaḥ-kṣā-kṣam) The same as anyādṛś. [This word is given on the authority of the Siddhānta Kaum. fol. 181 a. 1. 14. ed. Calc. and on that of Durgādāsa’s comm. on Vopadeva 26. 83. 85; it is not mentioned, however, in the commentaries of the Dhātupāṭhas, nor by the author of the Kāśikā who in his gloss on a Vārttika to Pāṇ. Iii. 2. 60. gives only the words: tādṛkṣa, yādṛkṣa, īdṛkṣa and kīdṛkṣa; Patanjali and his commentators do not even speak of the Vārttika on which the Kāś. has founded tādṛkṣa &c., the only word of a similar formation, viz. sadṛkṣa, being mentioned by Patanjali in his gloss on a Vārtt. to Pāṇ. Vi. 3. 89. It will appear therefore, that anyādṛkṣa does not belong to the older period of the classical Saṃskṛt.] E. anya and dṛkṣa (dṛś, kṛt aff. ksa) with the prolongation of the middle vowel.

context information

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.
