IV.3.101; cf also वाररुनो ग्रन्थः (vāraruno granthaḥ) S.K.on P.IV.3. 101. This work possibly was not a grammar work and its author also was not the same as the Varttikakara Katyayana.

[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.
