learn sanskrit 15 (grammar)


So in the last post i just gave u ahint of lkaras right yes ofcourse we are just going ahead in the same topic it is really very intresting topic among everything that is nothing but tence yes yes ofcourse the tences so lets learn below some basic introduction on the above mentioned topic

General introduction to the tenses.

In Sanskrit, verbs are associated with ten different
forms of usage. Of these six relate to the tenses and
four relate to moods. We shall examine the usages
now.
Six tenses are identified as follows. The tenses
directly relate to the time associated with the
activity specified in the verb, i.e., whether the
activity referred to in the verb is taking
place now or has it happened already or if it
will happen or going to happen etc.

Present tense:  वर्तमान कालः 
There is only one form for the present tense.

Past tense: भूत कालः 

Past tense has three forms associated with it.
1. Expressing something that had happened sometime
    in the recent past, typically last few days.
2. Expressing something that might have just happened,
    typically in the earlier part of the day.
3. Expressing something that had happened in the distant
    past about which we may not have much or any
    knowledge.

Future tense: भविष्यत कालः 
Future tense has two forms associated with it.
1. Expressing something that is certainly going to happen.
2. Expressing something that is likely to happen.
------Verb forms not associated with time.
There are four forms of the verb which do not relate
to any time. These forms are called "moods" in the
English language. English grammar specifies threemoods which are, Indicative mood, Imperative mood
and the Subjunctive mood. In Sanskrit primers one
sees a reference to four moods with a slightly
different nomenclature. These are, Imperative mood,
potential mood, conditional mood and benedictive
mood. Since the nomenclature differs we will have
to see what the moods in Sanskrit actually refer to.
The ten forms of usage of the verb are each given a
name in Sanskrit and all the names start with the
akshara l. Hence the forms are called the ten "lakaras"
(Even though two of the forms do not strictly start
with l , the term lkara:  applies)
1. लट  Present tense

2. लङ्ग्  Past tense - imperfect

3. लुङ्ग् Past tense - aorist

4. लिट् Past tense - perfect

5. लुट्  Future tense - likely

6. लृट्Future tense - certain

7. लृङ्ग्  Conditional mood

८  विधिलिङ्ग् .  Potential mood

9. आशिर्लीङ्ग्   Benedictive mood

10. लोट्  Imperative mood

so wasn't that interesting dear friends, hmmm so this is just an introduction to lakaras lets learn more on each kind of lakaras no no don't worry not now but in nxt post becoz i know it is a bit difficult..... so to learn sanskrit u need to learn this and all the upcoming notes very thoroughly.  

learn sanskrit 14

Hi, friends , in the last post we learnt some slokas and their meanings , and now lets proceed a step ahead .....
Today we are going to learn how to frame sentences by just seeing a picture. These kind of questions are normally asked during the sanskrit basic and higher examinations. This will improve our sanskrit in  both the ways speaking and writing too so today lets take a small picture and write very simple sentences......

चित्रं दृष्ट्वा पञ्च पदानि लिखतु :-

Write five sentences by seeing the picture:-




१. अस्माकं चित्रे एक ग्रामः अभवत|
२. चित्रे महिला तृणं अधारयत |
३. चित्रे एक कुकुरहः अपि अभवत|
४. बालकः चित्रे गोवत्सः संगे अतिष्टत|
५. अस्मिन चित्रे एक कुक्कुटी अपि अभवत|


1. Asmakam chitre ek gramah abahvat
2. chitre mahila trunam adharayat.
3. chitree ek kukuraha api abhavat.
4.balakah chitre govatsah sange athistat.
5.asmin chitre ek kukkutti api abhavat.


1.In our picture a village has been described.
2.In picture a women is carrying grasses.
3.In the pic a dog is also seen
4.A boy is standing with the calf in the pic.
5. In our pic a Hen is also seen.



In our sentencesu would have seen something very common we are using every where the different kind of verb ...... Like अभवत ,(Abhavat )  अधारयत (adharayat)...... why are we not using proper verbs like धारयति  (dharayati)   भवति  (bhavati)?

Yes there is a reason ... to know complete sanskrit it is better to know all the reasons so let me explain u briefly
see the picture is always in pastense so for pastence we always use (अ)  before all the verb .... but if it is plural then u should use the word (सन्ति ) ...... I know it is little confusing but no need to worry this is grammar called (लकारस ) (lakaras)..  we will learn briefly about this in upcomming post.

Learn sanskrit 11 (grammar shabdas)

so , in the previous post we learnt about Sandhi, now lets learn shabdas . These are very important to be learned.
Now what is shabdas?



There are three basic parts of speech in sanskrit:
 shabdas(Nouns, pronouns, adjectives , participles)
 Dhatu (verbs)
avyaya(prepositions, adverbs, excalation )

here we shall discus the declensions of noun. The forms of noun depends on two things
Its vachnam( number) and vibakti (case)

Lets us see the first shabada : Ram

अकारान्त शबद रूप रामः 

विभक्ति          एकवचनं            द्विवचनं                  बहुवचनं
vibhakti        ekvachanam      dvivachanam       bahuvachanam
प्रथम              रामः                   रामौ                       रामाः 
prathama      raamah             ramauo                  raamaah

द्वितीय            रामं                    रामौ                       रामान 
dvitiya           raamam              ramauo                  raamaan

तृतिया            रामेन्               रामाभ्याम                  रामै:
tritiyaa          raamaen          raamaabyam            ramaeh

चतुर्थी            रामाय              रामाभ्याम                 रामेभ्यः 
chathurti      raamaay          raamaabyam           ramebyah

पञ्चमी         रामात              रामाभ्याम                   रामेभ्यः 
panchami    raamaat           raamaabyaam           ramebyah

षष्टिः             रामस्य             रामयोः                         रामाणां 
shati             raamasya        raamayoha                    raamaanaam

सप्तमी           रामे                  रामयोः                          रामेषु 
saptami        raame                raamyoh                     raamaeshu

संबोदं            हे रामः!            हे रामौ !                          हे रामाः!
sambodam   he raam!            he ramoo!                   he raamaah!

This is the first shabadas there are many more shabads in different but if we learn 5to 6 then we can develop the shabadas by urself ....

Learn sanskrit 10 ( grammar - Sandhi)

Every language has a set of sounds that is used to make words and sentences. Usually, the sounds are quite easy to pronounce, especially for native speakers. But even though the sounds might be easy to say when they're separate, it can be quite difficult to say some of them when they're put together, especially when speaking quickly! Sanskrit speakers faced these exact problems, and they did what people everywhere did with their own languages: in one place or another, they started to simplify their pronunciation. These simplifications did not happen everywhere, but they certainly did in ordinary speech. The early Sanskrit grammarians, trying to study their own language and preserve it for the future, gave a single name to the set of all of these changes: sandhi.

अ  आ  
अ  
आ  
इ  ई  
ए (अ +इ  ) 
ऐ  (आ +इ )
उ   ऊ 
ओ  (अ +उ )
औ   (आ +ऊ )
त्र   त्र 
आर  (अ +त्र  )
आर  (आ +त्र )
ल्र ल्र 
अल  (अ +ल्र )
आल  (आ +ल्र )



Common Vowel Sandhis 
1.  Two similar simple vowels coming together are replaced by their long form:
   
i)  अ  आ  + अ आ -- आ 


 माला +  अस्ति  मलास्ति , 
(mala+asti--- malaasti)
Now lets us see some examples in the same topic

१. विद्या + आलय         ----  विद्यालय 
  (vidya+aalaya-- vidyaalay)

२ देव + आलय             ----  देवालय 
   (dev+aalay-- devalaya)

३. न्यालय                   ---- न्याय + आलय    
 (nyaalay-- nya+aalay)

ii)  ई इ  +इ ई ---- ई 


बोधति+इति                ----- बोधतीति


examples)


कवीश्वर:                    ------ कवी + ईश्वरः (kaveeshvarah-- kavi+eeshvarah)

कपिईन्द्र :                 ------  कपि + इन्द्रः (kapeendrah---kapi+endrah)


iii)  उ,ऊ, +उ, ऊ --------- ऊ 

  examples )

  अनु + उत्तम     ------ अनूतम  (anu+uttam-- anuutam)
  
   वधु+ उत्त्सवः    ----- वदूत्सव  (vadhu+utsavah-- vaduutsavah)

apart from these lets see some more formulas to understand and learn sandhi much more easily,normally we need to remember these formula but once if we learn basic sanskrit then these formulas  will not need any explanation...... 

इ ई + अ ---- य 

examples )

इति + अर्थः    ------ इत्यर्थः 

देवी+अहम्     ------ देव्यहम 

उ ऊ +अ   --- व् 

example )

त्रिशु +अपि ----- त्रिश्वपी 

ए=  अय  , ऐ= आय , ओ = अव् , औ  =आव् 

ने + अन्नम    ---------- नयनं 
नै + अकः       ----------  नायकः 
भो + अनम    ----------- भवनं 
नौ + औ         ----------- नावो:

The next is very important and very oftenly used 

ए  or   +अ   = ए or एs  or ओs  

मुने + अत्र               -------- मुनेsत्र 
पुरषो आगछत       -------- पुरुशोsग्च्छत 

These were some important and basics sandhi rules ,   now  we will learn sandhi from the lessons or stories or poems in upcomming posts.....

-- 



A king had a monkey as his body-guard. He was very fond of the king, and as he was very much trusted by the king, he could go into the kings' bed room without being stopped by anyone. 

Once when the king was sleeping the monkey started breezing the king with a fan. While doing this a fly came and sat on the king's chest. The monkey tried to ward off the fly with the fan. But the fly would come again and sit on the same place. 

The monkey due to its foolish nature became angry, got a sharp sword and hit the fly to kill it. The fly flew away but, the king's chest was divided into two, and the king died. 


"A king wishing long life should never keep foolish servants."
