Senart can do nothing with it; neither can I; I have thought of divaṃkara-karo, corrupted and metathetized, sun- rayed, compare Pali divaṃkara = divākara, but it does not yield the meter required.
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.
