Sanskrit is coming of Age. More and more Colleges and Universities are offering a degree course in this lingua franca of yore. Many schools across Europe and America are introducing Sanskrit to young learners.
In India too there is a revival across the length and breadth, with committed organizations working to reach out to adults and children all over.
To understand Sanskrit Grammar, the basic stuff is all about knowing the correct spelling of NOUNS and VERBS. This edition gives the correct spelling of Sanskrit NOUNS, that are commonly seen in literature or those that serve as templates for spellings of other Nouns. It also goes into the Ashtadhyayi of Panini to see what changes are involved to make the final spelling.
The 7x3 Sup Table matrices for Nouns in 7 cases and 3 numbers are judiciously arranged, with emphasis on clarity and legibility. Gender of Nouns is explicitly specified, and the mechanism of Original Sup Affixes, and Modified Sup affixes is elaborated.
Ashtadhyayi Sutras Nos for Substitutions and Sandhi changes in the Noun spellings are listed, so that the reader understands the background process threadbare.
