Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryPrajanīyām (प्रजनीयाम्).—[, 1 sg. opt., in Śikṣāsamuccaya 283.10 (sarvasattvā-nām…) svacittacaritāni pra°; read instead prajānīyām, of all creatures may I learn to know the own thoughts and conduct; compare line 9 (ekaikasyāpi) sattvasya cittacaritaṃ jānīyām. Bendall and Rouse, 259, interpret as if from pra-jana(ya)ti, produce; this is most implausible on formal (linguistic) as well as philological grounds; it assumes an unbelievable opt. of a thematic verb which does not exist in Sanskrit (only pass. prajāyate, °ti) or Pali.]
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.
