Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
Source: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammarAnudāttatara (अनुदात्ततर).—Quite a low tone, completely grave; generally applied to the tone of that grave or anudātta vowel which is immediately followed by an acute (उदात्त (udātta)) vowel. When the three Vedic accents were sub-divided into seven tones viz. उदात्त, उदात्ततर्, अनुदात्त, अनुदात्ततर, स्वरित, स्वरितस्थोदात्त (udātta, udāttatar, anudātta, anudāttatara, svarita, svaritasthodātta) and एकश्रुति (ekaśruti) corresponding to the seven musical notes, the अनुदात्ततर (anudāttatara) was the name given to the lowest of them all. अनुदात्ततर (anudāttatara) was termed सन्नतर (sannatara) also; cf. उदात्तस्वरित-परस्य सन्नतरः (udāttasvarita-parasya sannataraḥ) P.I.2.40; cf. also M, Bh. on I.2.33.
Vyakarana (व्याकरण, vyākaraṇa) refers to Sanskrit grammar and represents one of the six additional sciences (vedanga) to be studied along with the Vedas. Vyakarana concerns itself with the rules of Sanskrit grammar and linguistic analysis in order to establish the correct context of words and sentences.

[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.
