	Valuable Resources - Sanskrit: The Mother of All Languages
		The word Sanskrit is formed from “sam + krit” where (sam) prefix means (samyak) ‘entirely’ or ‘wholly’ or ‘perfectly,’ and krit means ‘done.’ Sanskrit was first introduced by Brahma to the Sages of the celestial abodes and it is still the language of the celestial abode, so it is also called the Dev Vani.
		Sanskrit was introduced on the earth planet, by the eternal Sages of Sanatan Dharm along with the Divine scriptures such as the Vedas, the Upnishads and the Puranas.
		The last two words are called the ‘apbhransh’ of the original Sanskrit word ‘matri.’ Such apbhranshas of Sanskrit words are found in all the languages of the world and this situation itself proves that Sanskrit was the mother language of the world.

		Sanskrit Language (from Sanskrit samskrta, “adorned, cultivated, perfected”), the classical sacred and literary language of the Hindus of India, belonging to the Indo-Aryan (Indic) branch of the Indo-Iranian languages, a subfamily of the Indo-European languages.
		Sanskrit is distinguishable from the oldest preserved forms of Indian speech, in the Vedic religious scriptures, the Brahmanas, Vedas, and Upanishads.
		The discovery by Western scholars of the existence of Sanskrit, and of Indian methods of teaching it, led both to the identification of the Indo-European language family and, under the stimulation of Panini's methodology, to the establishment of the science of comparative linguistics or comparative philology.

	Pāṇini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He is most famous for his Sanskrit grammar, particularly for his formulation of the 3,959 rules of Sanskrit morphology in the grammar known as Aṣṭādhyāyī (meaning "eight chapters") is the earliest known grammar of Sanskrit, and the earliest known work on descriptive linguistics, generative linguistics, and perhaps linguistics as a whole.
		Panini's comprehensive and scientific theory of grammar is conventionally taken to mark the end of the period of Vedic Sanskrit, by definition introducing Classical Sanskrit.
		A consequence of his grammar's focus on brevity is its highly unintuitive structure, reminiscent of contemporary "machine language" (as opposed to "human readable" programming languages).

		An equally important contribution to Sanskrit grammar was Mahabhasya, a commentary written in the second century B. by a Kashmiri grammarian Patanjali.

	ANALYTICAL INDICANT THEORY - PANINI AND SANSKRIT GRAMMAR
		The Sanskrit grammar of Panini already comprises a fully formulated system, its author standing at the end of a long line of precursors of which sixty-four are named but whose works have entirely perished.
		The grammar of Panini is a 'sabdanusasana,' or 'Treatise on Words', the cardinal principle of which is, that all nouns are derived from verbs, and because of this belief it was natural that the Sanskrit copula should also be categorized as a verb.
		This is evidenced by the modern disorderly and irregular state of the English 'be' inflectionary system, constituting as it does a bewildering mixture of two different verbs, and the varying degrees of paradigmatic abnormality of the copula in all the other languages of Europe.

	PIB Press Release
		The Department of Posts has released a postage stamp today in commemoration of India’s Heritage in Grammar and Mathematics which was influenced by the accomplishments of Panini, one of the greatest grammarians of all time whose work revolutionised the use of language not only in India but also in the rest of the world.
		It unfolds a theory of human language where the infinite language is generated by finite grammar which modern linguistic acknowledges as the complete, generative grammar of any language yet written.
		Today, Panini’s grammar has been compared to Euclid’s geometry and his constructions can be seen as comparable to modern definitions of a mathematical function.

		The grammars of Type I are intended to be used by English speakers (particularly, Christian missionaries), primarily for translating the English Bible into Marathi, and or for using Marathi with the native speakers of Marathi.
		The use of the Sanskrit grammatical patterns (specifically, related to phonetics, and lexicon) was justified because Carey (1905:7) claimed that he used the "high class" dialect (which showed a marked influence of Sanskrit) for his analysis of Marathi.
		Thus the use of Sanskrit grammar was for complementing the primarily Latin-based grammatical analysis by adding a touch of indigenous "high class" dialect of the language.

		As for "vikuti" it is from the Sanskrit "vikriti": there is no such word as "vikuttal" in Tamil corresponding to pakuttal.
