Bādhakatva (बाधकत्व).—The same as बाध (bādha) ; sublation; setting aside; this sublation is described to be of two types-(1) complete sublation when the rule set aside, is for ever set aside and cannot, by the maxim called तक्रकौण्डिन्यन्याय (takrakauṇḍinyanyāya), be applied again; cf. दधि ब्राह्मणेभ्यो दीयतां तक्रं कौण्डिन्यायेति सत्यपि संभवे दधिदानस्य तक्रदानं निवर्तकं भवति । (dadhi brāhmaṇebhyo dīyatāṃ takraṃ kauṇḍinyāyeti satyapi saṃbhave dadhidānasya takradānaṃ nivartakaṃ bhavati |) cf. M. Bh. on P. I. 1.47; VI. 1.2. VI. 2.1. etc.; (2) temporary sublation when the rule set aside, can be applied, if possible after the special rule has been applied; cf. सर्वथा अनवकाशत्वादेव बाधकत्वे स्वस्य (sarvathā anavakāśatvādeva bādhakatve svasya) (अनवकाशशास्त्रस्य (anavakāśaśāstrasya)) पूर्वप्रवृत्तिरित्येव बाधः । तत्र बाधके प्रवृत्ते यद्युत्सर्गप्राप्तिर्भवति तदा भवत्येव यथा तत्रैव याडादयः (pūrvapravṛttirityeva bādhaḥ | tatra bādhake pravṛtte yadyutsargaprāptirbhavati tadā bhavatyeva yathā tatraiva yāḍādayaḥ) Par.Sek.on Pari.57, The sublation or बाधकत्व (bādhakatva) is not only in the case of सामान्यविशेषभाव (sāmānyaviśeṣabhāva) and अनवकाशत्व (anavakāśatva) as given above, but a rule or operation which is पर (para) (cited later), or नित्य (nitya), or अन्तरङ्ग (antaraṅga) sets aside the rule or operation which is पूर्व (pūrva),or अनित्य (anitya),or बहिरङ्ग (bahiraṅga) respectively. This बाध्यबाधकभाव (bādhyabādhakabhāva) occupies a very important position in respect of the application of grammar rules for arriving at the correct forms (इष्टरूपसिद्धि (iṣṭarūpasiddhi)) and grammarians have laid down a number of Paribhasas in the field of बाध्यबाधकभाव (bādhyabādhakabhāva).

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.
