Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
Source: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammarBālaṃbhaṭṭa (बालंभट्ट).—(or बाळंभट्ट (bāḷaṃbhaṭṭa)) surnamed Payagunda or Payagunde, who has written a commentary on the commentary Mitaksara on the याज्ञवल्क्यस्मृति (yājñavalkyasmṛti). Some scholars say that he was also a great grammarian and identical with वैद्यनाथ पायगुंडे (vaidyanātha pāyaguṃḍe) who has written the commentary काशिका (kāśikā) or गदा (gadā) on the Paribhasendusekhara, the Cidasthimala on the Laghusabdendusekhara and commentaries on the Vaiyakaranabhusana,Sabdakaustubha and Bhasyapradipoddyota. Other scholars believe that Balambhatta was the son of Vaidyanatha and that he wrote only the commentary on Mitaksara called Balambhatti after him. (2) There was also a comparatively modern grammarian of Tanjore who has written small grammar works बालबोधिनी (bālabodhinī) and बालरञ्जनी (bālarañjanī).

[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.
