Note: Śvetamarica is prepared by decorticating the Marica fruits. Some scholars consider the Śigru seeds as Śvetamarica, which is not an accepted version now. The oil of pepper is prepared by its seeds. Malabar and Tellichari varieties are commercially much in use.—The sixth chapter (pippalyādi-varga) of this book enumerates ninety-five varieties of plants obtained from the market (paṇyauṣadhi).—Together with the names Sitavallīja and Śvetamarica, there are a total of seven Sanskrit synonyms identified for this plant.

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.
