Vibhāgīya (विभागीय).—(?) (app. to Pali vibhāga plus -īya), one who is an expert in scholastic classification (compare Senart, Mahāvastu ii note 536): dharmo gatir °yānāṃ Mahāvastu ii.212.20 (verse); but the pāda is hypermetric; in a repetition of the same verse iii.156.17 Senart reads the metrically correct dvijātīnāṃ, of brahmans, but mss. vibhātīnām (read vibhāgīnāṃ, gen. pl. of vibhāgin = vibhāgīya?); Pali has the same verse, Vin. v. 149.22—23, but with a quite different pāda for this: vibhavo gati dhammānaṃ.

context information

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.
