Maṇḍūkapluti (मण्डूकप्लुति).—One of the six devices which form the requisite qualifications of Sanskrit grammar;—Maṇḍūkapluti, as the word itself explains, means the ‘jump of a frog’. In the words of Abhyankar it is ‘the continuation of a word from a preceding sūtra to the following sūtra or sūtras in the manner of a frog by skipping one or more sūtras in the middle,’ we are informed of this technical device twice by Śvetavanavāsin in his Uṇādivṛtti.

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.
