Sanskrit dictionary
Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryYeva (येव).—(= Pali id.) = Sanskrit eva (§ 4.66), only in Mahāvastu and not common; usually after vowels, sometimes after anusvāra (probably by extension; Geiger 66.1); after vowels: dūrato yeva Mahāvastu i.35.4 (mss. yena, which might perhaps be kept, meaning where); 237.7; svaka-svakā yeva mātrīyo (so read, see mātrī) bhaginīyo i.351.3, 8; others, ii.54.6; iii.51.6, 11; 91.7 (sa yeva, prose, no v.l.); 216.12 (kuśalāni, em. for mss. kuśalena, yeva, v.l. evaṃ; not certain); 443.17; after anusvāra, etarahiṃ yeva i.286.20; ii.77.2; gantuṃ yevādhyavasito ii.105.11.
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.
