1) Aniṭkārikā (अनिट्कारिका).—Name given to Stanzas giving a complete list of such roots as do not allow the augment इ (i) (इट् (iṭ)) to be prefixed to an ārdhadhātuka affix placed after them. For such Kārikās see Sid. Kaum. on VII.1.5 as also Kāśikā on VII. 2.10;

2) Aniṭkārikā.—A short treatise enumerating in 11 verses the roots which do not admit the augment इट् (iṭ) before the ārdhadhatuka affixes. The work is anonymous, and not printed so far, possibly composed by a Jain writer. The work possibly belongs to the Kātantra system and has got short glosses called व्याख्यान, अवचूरि, विवरण, टीका, टिप्पणी (vyākhyāna, avacūri, vivaraṇa, ṭīkā, ṭippaṇī) and the like which are all anonymous.

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.
