Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryDadrula (दद्रुल) or Dardura or Dardara or Dardula or Dradula.—adj. (all these spellings recorded in the mss.; compare Sanskrit dadruṇa, adj., Schmidt, Nachträge; from the noun Sanskrit dadru, Pali and AMg. daddu, a skin disease variously alleged to be leprosy or ringworm), afflicted with a skin- disease, leprosy or ringworm(?), in a list of adj. describing physical deformities, see quotations s.v. khoḍa, lame. Senart's readings vary and are not always related to the wildly varying readings of the mss., which I quote: Mahāvastu ii.150.9 darduro, dardaro; 152.3 dradulo (only one ms.); 153.19 dadrulaṃ, dradulaṃ; 156.12 dadrulaṃ, (da)rdulaṃ.
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.
