Source: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammarPrātipadika (प्रातिपदिक).—Lit.available in every word. The term प्रातिपादिक (prātipādika) can be explained as प्रतिपदं गृह्णाति तत् प्रातिपदिकम् (pratipadaṃ gṛhṇāti tat prātipadikam) cf P.IV. 4. 39. The term प्रातिपदिक (prātipadika), although mentioned in the Brahmana works, is not found in the Pratisakhya works probably because those works were concerned with formed words which had been actually in use. The regular division of a word into the base (प्रकृति (prakṛti)) and the affix (प्रत्यय (pratyaya)) is available, first in the grammar of Panini, who has given two kinds of bases, the noun-base and the verb-base. The noun-base is named Pratipadika by him while the verb-base is named Dhatu. The definition of Pratipadika is given by him as a word which is possessed of sense, but which is neither a root nor a suffix; cf. अर्थवदधातुरप्रत्ययः प्रातिपदिकम् (arthavadadhāturapratyayaḥ prātipadikam) . P.I. 2.45. Although his definition includes, the krdanta words,the taddhitanta words and the compound words, still, Panini has mentioned them separately in the rule कृत्तद्धितसमासाश्च (kṛttaddhitasamāsāśca) P. I. 2.45 to distinguish them as secondary noun-bases as compared with the primary noun-bases which are mentioned in the rule अर्थवदधातुर-प्रत्ययः प्रातिपदिकम् (arthavadadhātura-pratyayaḥ prātipadikam), Thus,Panini implies four kinds of Pratipadikas मूलभूत, कृदन्त, तद्धितान्त (mūlabhūta, kṛdanta, taddhitānta) and समास (samāsa), The Varttikakara appears to have given nine kinds-गुणवचन, सर्वनाम, अव्यय, तद्धितान्त, कृदन्त, समास, जाति, संख्या (guṇavacana, sarvanāma, avyaya, taddhitānta, kṛdanta, samāsa, jāti, saṃkhyā) and संज्ञा (saṃjñā). See Varttikas 39 to 44 on P. I. 4. 1. Later on, Bhojaraja in his Sringara-Prakasa has quoted the definition अर्थवदधातु (arthavadadhātu) given by Panini, and has given six subdivisions.: cf. नामा-व्ययानुकरणकृत्तद्धितसमासाः प्रातिपदिकानि (nāmā-vyayānukaraṇakṛttaddhitasamāsāḥ prātipadikāni) Sr. Prak. I. page 6. For the sense conveyed by a Pratipadika or nounbase, see प्रातिपदिकार्थ (prātipadikārtha).
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.
