Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
Source: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammarPadasaṃskārapakṣa (पदसंस्कारपक्ष).—An alternative view with वाक्यसंस्कारपक्ष (vākyasaṃskārapakṣa) regarding the formation of words by the application of affixes to crude bases. According to the Padasamskāra alternative, every word is formed independently, and after formation the words are syntactically connected and used in a sentence. The sense of the sentence too, is understood after the sense of every word has been understood; cf. सुविचार्य पदस्यार्थं वाक्यं गृह्णन्ति सूरयः (suvicārya padasyārthaṃ vākyaṃ gṛhṇanti sūrayaḥ) Sira. on Pari. 22. According to the other alternative viz. वाक्यसंस्कारपक्ष (vākyasaṃskārapakṣa), a whole sentence is brought before the mind and then the constituent individual words are formed e.g. राम (rāma) +सु, गम् (su, gam) + अ (a) + ति । (ti |) Both the views have got some advantages and some defects; cf. Par. Sek. Pari. 56.
Vyakarana (व्याकरण, vyākaraṇa) refers to Sanskrit grammar and represents one of the six additional sciences (vedanga) to be studied along with the Vedas. Vyakarana concerns itself with the rules of Sanskrit grammar and linguistic analysis in order to establish the correct context of words and sentences.
