Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
Śeṣakṛṣṇa (शेषकृष्ण).—One of the prominent grammarians belonging to the Sesa family, who was the son of नरससिंहशेष (narasasiṃhaśeṣa). He wrote a gloss on the Prakriyakaumudi and two small works Prakrtacandrika and Padacandrika. Two other minor grammar works viz. the Yanlugantasiromani and Upapadamatinsutravyakhyana are ascribed to शेषकृष्ण (śeṣakṛṣṇa) who may be the same as शेषकृष्ण (śeṣakṛṣṇa) the son of नरसिंह (narasiṃha), or another, as there were many persons who had the name Krsna in the big family.
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.
