1) Ānuśūka (आनुशूक):—mfn. ([from] anu-śūka), being with or within the awns (as rice).

Anuṣuka (अनुषुक):—[tatpurusha compound] m.

(-kaḥ) Probably the epithet of a divinity; the same as ānuṣuka. (Some read instead of this word anusūyaka which seems to be wrong, others anuṣūka which is doubtful. Compare also ānusuka.) E. The Gaṇaratnamahodadhi derives anuṣuka from anusū and ka (from kai) with a short vowel before kaḥ anuṣuvatīti anuṣū . taṃ kāyatīti anuṣuka . keṇa iti hrasvatve; this application, however, of Pāṇ. Vii. 4. 13. to the etym. given, seems very objectionable.

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.
