Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Goldstücker Sanskrit-English DictionaryApapitva (अपपित्व):—[tatpurusha compound] n.
(-tvam) (ved.) Going away from, sever-ance. E. āp with apa, kṛt aff. tvan; (in analogy with the etym. of sapitva as given by Sāyaṇa; but Benfey—s. v. prapitva in his Glossary to the Sāmaveda—is probably more correct in referring this and similar formations to a radical ap (comp. the E. of apta). The compound is irregular on account of the short vowel of the second syllable and belongs, in this respect, to the class of karkandhu, śakandhu, sīmanta &c.).
[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.
