(-ṅkaḥ) A plant (Cassia fistula).— The word is udātta on the last syllable. E.? (The Siddhāntakaum. in its chapter, the phiṭsūtra, gives the word only in its crude form, whence the masc. gender could not be established; in the E. I. H. Ms. No. 98 of these Sūtras the comm. writes once apālaṅkā and another time apālaṅkaḥ, the latter being probably the correct form, to judge from the synonymes and the form pālaṅka which seems kindred to it.)
[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.
