(-taḥ-tā-tam) (ved.) Restless, incessant(?). E. aniśi (a denom. from aniśa), kṛt aff. kta(?). (Meaning and etymology of this word are doubtful. According to the native commentaries it would be a [tatpurusha compound] compounded of a neg. and niśita, sharpened, sharp, and would mean either:
1) not sharp, not injurious, or:
2) not difficult, easy, or
3) not slender, not little; but these explanations, when applied to the passages to which they refer, seem artificial.

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.
