Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryPrajñāyate (प्रज्ञायते).—(-prajñāyate), denom. from -prajñā, in jāti-prajñāyate jarā-pr° vyādhi-pr° maraṇa-pr° Lalitavistara 19.12 (prose), there is knowledge of birth, old age, disease, death; based on [compound] jāti-prajñā, etc. Weller 18 wrongly assumes that jāti etc. are separate nouns, n. sg., and prajñāyate pass.; this is the construction in Mahāvastu i.52.10 jarā vyādhi maraṇaṃ (so mss.; Senart as one dvandva [compound], em. °maraṇā) ca prajñāyanti, old age, disease, and death become known. In prose of Lalitavistara it is hardly conceivable that jāti, vyādhi, and maraṇa would occur in one sentence as n. sg.; while in prose of Mahāvastu vyādhi is not at all surprising as n. sg.
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.
