(seems = Pali appaññāta, which according to Critical Pali Dictionary = Sanskrit aprajñāta), little known, not celebrated: Mūla-Sarvāstivāda-Vinaya ii.124.12; bhikṣur bāḍhaglānaḥ alpajñātaḥ sve mūtrapurīṣe nimagno 128.13; yaḥ parṣadvinirmukto 'lpajñātaś ca 131.13. Is our form hyper-Sanskrit, or the true orig. of the Pali?
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.
