She has studied the character, scope and function of Desya element in the Middle Indo-Aryan. Moreover, she has critically studied more than 1,000 desya and rare words from the Mahapurana of Puspadanta. Her method is empirical. She takes a particular word, notes the meaning given in the Sanskrit gloss, collects the different references where the word occurs in the Mahapurana and other works as well (here the author has wisely used the indexes of the critical editions of the published Apabhramsa works), quotes Desinamamala, takes note of different forms in which the word is used, gives us Gujarati, Marathi, Konkani, Kannada, Tamila and Telugu counterparts, examines the meanings in all these contexts and finally arrives at its true form and meaning. Hence the work has become very useful for those who are interested in the study of Apabhramsa, Desi, and NIA languages. I gratefully acknowledge the grant of Rs. 2,500/- given to us by Bangalore University by way of subvention towards its publication. And I am thankful to the author for allowing us to include her thesis in our L. D. Series. L. D. Institute of Indology, Ahmedabad-9. (INDIA). Dalsukh Malvania Director. Page #5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Page #6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ FOREWORD The class of words known as Desya or Desi in accordance with the traditional Indian system of Prakrit grammar constitutes one of the major problems of Middle Indo-Aryan lexicology. After the pioneering work of Pischel, Sheth, Doshi and others relating to Hemacandra's Rayanavali (or what is popularly known as Desinamamala) and to Prakrit lexicogrphy, little progress has been made in this area, in the face of the fact that a considerable body of fresh data has become available in the Prakrit and Apabhramsa texts as also in the comparative and historical works of New Indo-Aryan lexicography which have appeared during the course of the last few decades. Really speaking, the Desya problem is not one single problem, but rather a whole cluster of related problems i the character and origin of the Desya words, their relationship with the words of obscure or unknown origin in the lexical stocks of the New Indo-Aryan languages, the sources, authenticity and validity of the Desya words and their meanings recorded in the traditional Prakrit lexicons and grammars, etc. etc. One line of investigation for the last mentioned aspect of the problem is to examine the Desya elements found in the language of pre-Hemacandra Prakrit and Apabhramba texts. With this aspect in view, Dr. Ratna Shriyan, following my suggestion and guidance, collected and studied the Desya words found in the works of Puspadanta, who was a major abhraisa poet of the ninth century A. D. The present work embodies her scholarly labours in this connection. Our initial problem was how to characterize desyas, The term had been evolved and was meaningful primarily in the context of the traditional system of Prakrit grammar, and as such it could n expected to be serviceable in the present day context of historical linguistic investigations. On the other hand, some criteria of selection were necessary for collecting the data from texts under study. Under the circumstances it was decided to follow the obvious course of selecting broadly those items which either have been recorded traditionally as Desya or were not derivable from Sanskrit in accordance principles of early grammatical and lexicographical traditions. Expectedly, the material thus extracted was linguistically quite heterogeneous. A working scheme was therefore devised to classify it under various heads Page #7 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ (See. p. 47-48 of the present book). It is hoped that the scheme might be found of some practical use in a similar type of work. Dr. Ratna Shriyan has painstakingly and systematically collected here considerable amount of positive information regarding the meaning and use of more than fourteen hundred items. At numerous places she has cited corroborating passages from original Prakrit and Apabhranica texts and has extracted relevant information from modern works of Prakrit scholarship. She has used her sources carefully and critically, has pointed out some serious errors and at several places made original suggestions. In the first section of the book she has presented most of the available information on the nature, character and scope of the Desya words from the traditional as well as modern sources. Her present study of Desya words from Puspadanta is the first of the concerete steps which should pave the way for investigating the bases and authenticity of Hemacandra's Desinamamala. It also provides properly documented and hence highly valuable material for Middle and Modern Indo-Aryan lexicography, and thus opens up quite a fruitful line of studying Prakrit and Apabhramsa texts. For all these she deserves our high praise. Let us hope that she continues her scholarly labours in this field and makes further valuable contributions. The Bangalore University and Lalbhai Dalpatbhai Institute of Indology deserve credit for what they have done in making available to the public such a useful and valuable work. Gujarat University Ahmedabad 1, December 1969 H. C. Bhayani Page #8 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ PREFACE The present work was prepared by way of a thesis and was accepted by the University of Bombay for the degree of Ph. D., in ArdhaMagadbi in December, 1962. In this volume I have made a humble attempt to study the Desya and rare material contained in the three Apabhraisa works of Puspadanta. I have also attempted here to study the character, scope and function of the Desya element in Middle Indo-Aryan. I have divided the present work into two parts. The first part consists of the Introduction which deals with the discussion of Desi in general and the collected Desya data in particular and of the conclusions derived therefrom. The second part presents all the Desya and rare words under study with critical and comparative notes on their meanings and interpretations, Appendix I gives the Desi and rare words exclusive to Nayakumaracariu and Jasabaracariu and Appendix II presents rare words found in the old glosses of the works under study. I have also given an alphabetical reference Index of all the words discussed. For the sake of convenieace of reference the words in the Appendices are numbered in continuation of the words in the main thesis. Words given in Appendix II are marked with an asterisk in the beginning. While preparing this work I have consulted the valuable contributions of seyeral authors. For my work I have used Mahapurana and Jasaharacariu edited by Dr. P. L. Vaidya and Nayakumaracariu edited by Dr. Hiralal Jain. I have also made use of Desigamamala edited by Prof. P. V. Ramanujaswami and Hemacandra's Prakrit Grammar edited by Dr. P. L. Vaidya. I have constantly consulted various other works, most important among these being the three volumes of Paumacariu edited by Dr. H. C. Bhayani and Karaka mdacariu edited by Dr. Hiralal Jain.. In the beginning I had the intention of quoting original passages from Various Apabh ramsa and Prakrit works in support of the interpretation of the words under study. But, later on, as the bulk of the work gret beyond expectation, I had to curb my temptation of including them. So also it was not possible for me to make use of Dr. Bhayani's "Studies in Hemacandra's Desinamamala (1965) as it became accessible to me when a large part of the present work was already in print. Page #9 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ In the end there remains for me the pleasant duty of acknowledging the help that I received in the preparation of this work. In the first place I must express my deep sense of gratitude to my revered Guru Professor Dr. Harivallabh C. Bhayani, to work under whom is a rare privilege. I consider myself to be exceptionally fortunate in having enjoyed this. Had it not been for his invaluable guidance, critical direction, resourceful help, indefatigable zeal and constant encouragement this work would never have been completed. I sincerely believe that all the credit for this attempt goes to my honoured Professor Dr. Bhayani, while I humbly accept all the blame for the deficiencies therein. I must also express my gratitude to our late revered Guruji Prof. H. D. Velankar for his valuable suggestions and advice and paternal interest and Dr. N. I. Pandya, the Librarian of the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Bombay, for his kind help in making readily available all the books I needed. I am thankful to my referee Prof. Dr. Hiralal Jain for his critical appreciation of my work. I am grateful to Prof. M. A, Krishnaswamy for sponsoring this work and presenting it to the consideration of Bangalore University. I AM THANKFUL TO THE AUTHORITIES OF BANGALORE ERSITY FOR RECOGNISING THE NEED FOR THE PUBLICATION OF THIS WORK AND FOR HAVING MADE A GENEROUS GRANT OF RS. 2,500/- by way of subvention towords its publication. I also express my sincere gratitude to Prof. Dalsukhbhai Malvania and the L. D. Institute of Indology, Ahmedabad, who came forward generously to meet all the remaining cost of publication and thus enabled me to put this work before the scholars. I am much indebted to all the authors whose works I have consulted, referred to or quoted from, mention of which will be found in the Bibliography. . I would be failing in my duty if I do not give expression to my feeling of obligation to the Bharatiya Vidya Bhayan which provided me all the facilities for carrying on this research work.

NATURE AND SCOPE OF THE PRESENT STUDY [Importance of Desya words-Importance of the sources of our dataBroad plan of the present study.] Importance of Desya Words: It is well known that words variously styled as Desi, Desya or Desaja hold a very important position in the Middle Indo-Aryan vocabulary. It makes up one of the three strands in the Prakrit vocabulary, the other two being made up by the Tatsama (i.e., identical in form with Sanskrit) and Tadbhava (i.e., derived from Sanskrit) elements'. It is not possible to understand Prakrit and Apabhramsa fully without a proper knowledge of Desya words and expressions. A very substantial part of the New Indo-Aryan vocabulary is known to be of Desya origin and it has inherited many Middle Indo-Aryan Desya words and expressions. From these and several other view-points also the study of Desya words deserves to be given a foremost place in Middle Indo-Aryan studies. As a preliminary spade-work to a thorough investigation of the role and character of Dest, it is necessary to prepare exhaustive and rigorous studies of Desya element in the language of individual Prakrit and Apabhramsa texts - especially, extensive texts like Jaina Agama Texts; Paumacariu of Vimalasuri, Vasudevahindi, Kuvalayamala, Gatbasaptasati and similar literary works; Apabhramsa works like Svayambhu's Paumacariu, Puspadanta's Mahapurana and the Jain Sanskrit works like the works of Jaina Prabandha literature. So far no systematic study exclusively or mainly based on the Dest material contained in any extensive Apabhramsa text has been attempted in all its aspects. As a modest beginning in that direction, our present attempt is to study in a comparative and critical manner all the Desya material contained in the works of an outstanding Apabhramsa poet. This poet is Puspadanta (10th cent. A. D.) and the works of Puspadanta we have studied are: (1) Mahapurana, (2) Nayakumaracariu and (3) Jasaharacariu. Importance of the Sources of Our Data: The text of Mahapurana, which forms the chief basis of our study as stated previously, is sufficiently extensive. Secondly, the geographical area of the composition of the work is known. Thirdly, the work is exactly dated. These are important factors in determining the character of lexical material. Besides, 1. See Kavyadarsa of Dandin, I, 33 and Prakrtalaksana of Canda, Satyajit Granthamala edition, Ahmedabad, 1929, P. 2. Page #13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA by the time of Puspadanta, sufficient Prakrit and Apabhramsa literature was cultivated. These factors were decisive for us in selecting the text for study. Broad Plan of the Present Study : Broacly speaking the thesis is made up of two parts The first part is introductory and critical, while the second part presents all the Desya and rare words under study with cri. tical and comparative notes on their meapings and interpretations. The topics studied and discussed in the first part are as follows: (1) Description of the basic sources of the study. (2) The plan of study and the mode of its presentation. (3) The nature and character of the Desya element. (i) The classified list of all the important passages in original and translation, defining or explaining the terms Desi, Desya etc. (ii) Critical observations on the above collected data about the Desya element. (a) Hemacandra's concept of Desi. (b) Views of modern scholars like Grierson, Pischel, Banerji, Ramanujaswami, Patel, Vaidya, Upadhye and others. (4) The role of Desya element in Prakrit and Apabhramsa in general and Puspadanta's works in particular. (i) The role of Desya element in Prakrit and Apabhramsa. (ii) Observations on Desya and rare linguistic material as found in Puspadanta. Thus the first part is not only introductory to the second part, but it also gives general conclusions derived from the material presented in the second part. The second part consists of Desya material collected and presented according to the plan of presentation mentioned in the first part followed by an Appendix of Desi words exclusive to Naya kumaracariu and Jasaharacariu and a second Appendix of rare words found in the old glosses of the works and an alphabetical Reference Index of all the words discussed. II. DESCRIPTION OF THE BASIC SOURCES OF THE PRESENT STUDY (A brief account of the author-A short account of the worksVaidya's edition of MP.-Variants and Gloss in Vaidya's edition of MP.Alsdorf's edition of MP.-Edition of NC.---Gloss and Variants in NC.Edition of JC. --Gloss and Variants in JC.] Page #14 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESCRIPTION OF THE BASIC SOURCES 3 As mentioned before we have selected Puspadanta's Apabbremsa works for a study of the texts from the point of view of Desc material. We have collected material chiefly from Mabapurana of Puspadanta and supplemented it by niaterial from the other two works of Puspadanta, namely, Nayakumaracariu and Jasa ha racariu. Barring Paumacariu of Svayambhu, Mahapurana is the earliest available A pabbramsa text. It was written during A. D. 959 to 9651 A Brief Account of the Author. The author of MP., NC. and JC. is Puspadanta. He was the son of Kesavabhatta and Mugdhadevi, who were followers of Saiya sect, but were later converted to Jainism. Pospadanta was well-versed in Brahmanic lore as well as in Jainism. His patron was Bharata, a Rastrakuta minister of Krsna III. He lived and wrote at Manyakheta (modern Malkhed in Hyderabad State) a Kannada-speaking region. From the year 959 to about 972 A. D. the poet lived under the patronage of Bharata and after his death under that of Bharata's son Nanna. During this period he wrote three works, namely, Mahapurana in 102 sandhis, the Nayakumaracariu in 9 sandhis and the Jasaha. racariu in 4 sandhis. Out of these three works the MP. is dedicated to Bharata and the NC, and the JC. are dedicated to Nanna. A Short Account of the Works: The Mahapurana (MP.): Mahapurana or Tisatthi.mabapurisa-gunalaikara is the earliest and the largest of the three available works of Puspadanta. It is a work on the lives of sixty-three Great Men of the Jaina faith. Puspandanta entitles his work as "Mabapurana" or alternatively Tisatthi-mahapurisa.gunalamkara, 'Adoration of the Virtues or qualities of sixty-three Great Men'. The text of Mahapurana is suffi. cientiy extensive. It consists of 102 sandhis divided into Adipurana ( first 37 sandhis ) and Uttarapurana (38-102 sandhis). The idea of the extensiveness of the text can be gathered from the fact that the text of the MP. in Vaidya's edition along with the variants and gloss covers 1,414 pages of the royal size. The work contains approximately 20,000 kadavakas. The Mahapurana has been edited and published by P. L. Vaidya in three volumes, the first volume (1-37 sandhis) in the year 1937, the second (38-80 sandhis) in 1940 and the third (81-102 sandhis) in 19416. 1. See MP. I, Introduction, p. IX and XXIX. 2.

I, Introduction, p. X. Page #15 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA 1. (ii) Vaidya's edition of MP. : Vaidya's edition of the I volume of MP. is based on five MSS. designated by bim as G, K, M, B and P. The Manuscript designated as G is one considered by the editor as one of the best and the most authentic of the Mss. of tbe work and hence he has based the text mainly on thisl. For fixing the text and preparing the critical apparatus, the editor has also made use of Tippana of Pra. bbacandra on Adipurana, for which see further below. Vaidya's edition of the II volume of MP. is based upon three Mss. designated by him K, A and P which are fully collated. The editor has constituted the text in this volume mostly relying upon the text as preserved in K manuscript which represents the earliest of the three recensions of the Uttarapurana. The editor also has made use of the Tippana of Prabhacandia on Uttara.purana and the marginal gloss in K and P in constituting the text and preparing the foot-notes?. The text of the III volume of MP. edited by Vaidya is based upon three fully collated Mss. designated by him as K, A and P. For fixing the text, the Uttarapurana Tippana of Prabhacandra has been used here also as in Volume II. For the text of Harivamsa i. e. for Sandhis 81-92, two more Mss. designated by him as B and S have been used. The editor has chiefly relied on K manuscript in constituting the text and has included the Tippana of Prabhacandra in his Critical Apparatus and foot-notes.3 The introductions to the three volumes of MP. edited by Vaidya deal with description and relationship of Mss., mode of constituting the Text and description of gloss (pp. X-XVI and pp. XXXV-XXXVI of MP. I, pp. IX-X of MP. II and pp. XIII-XVIII and pp. XXIII-XXIV of MP. III). The Introductions to I and III volumes also deal with a brief account of the poet Puspadanta, his patrons Bharata and Nanna (pp. XXVIII of MP. I and pp. XIV-XXI of MP. III). The I volume also deals with the general character of a Mabapurana (pp. XXXII-XXXIV). The III volume also gives a description of Manyakheta (pp. XXIXXIII). In both the II and III volumes a brief summary of the conttents of Sandhis is given in the introduction (pp. X-XXI of MP. II and pp. XXV-XXXII of MP. III) and brief notes at the end of the tex. In the I volume a brief summary of the contents of Sandhis together with brief votes are given at the end of the text (pp. 593-661). This is followed by a small glossary of a few selected rare Prakrit words including Desc words. 1. See MP. 1, Introduction, pp. X-XVI, 2. See MP. II, Introduction, pp. X-XI. 3. See MP. II, Introduction, pp. X--XI. Page #16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESCRIPTION OF THE BASIC SOURCES (iii) Variants and Gloss in Vaidya's edition of MP. In all the three volumes, the bottom portion of the printed text is divided into two parts. The first part, separated from the text by a wavy line gives the variants found in different Mss. or recorded in the margin of Mss. and also in the Tippana of Prabhacandra. The second part, separated from the first part by a double line, gives a short gloss in Sanskrit on the constituted text. The editor has culled the gloss from old marginal notes found in the Mss. that he has used and also from the Tippana of Prabhacandra (1023 A. D.) and Panjika of an unknown author. Extracts from Prabhacandra's Tippana, where they are extensive are given in the notes at the end." (iv) Alsdorf's edition of MP. (81-92 Sandhis): A portion of the MP. containing Sandhis 81-92 and dealing with the narrative of Harivamsa has been edited and published by Ludwig Alsdorf of Hamburg University, Germany, in Roman characters under the title "Harivamsapurana, ein Abschnitt ous der Apabhramsa-welt-historie "Mahapurana Tisatthima. hapurisagunalamkara" von Puspadanta" in 1936. 5 Alsdorf's edition is based upon three Mss. which he designates as A, B and C. They correspond to B, P and S respectively of Vaidya's edition. Alsdorf gives the variants and the gloss at the bottom of the text in the manner of Vaidya. Alsdorf has reproduced some of the glosses which Vaidya has exclu. ded. According to Alsdorf there are primarily two recensions of Mss. A and BC and secondarily two versions B and C. He further states that in many cases A Ms. has more correct and older readings than B and C. So he has taken as his basis A manuscript which corresponds to Vaidya's B Ms. But Vaidya has basically relied on K Ms. in constituting the text. Hence there is some difference in the text of MP. (81-92 Sandhis) according to Vaidya and according to Alsdorf. In the Introduction to his edition Alsdorf gives an account of the poet, Puspadanta and his patron (pp. 1-10), description of Harivamsapu. rana (pp. 11-12), description of the Mss. (pp. 122-129), relationship of the Mss. (pp. 131-133), attempt for a text history (pp. 129-134), account of old gloss-works on the MP. (pp. 129-131), basis of the edition, attempt at a genealogical tree of the Mss. (pp. 133), detailed study of grammar of the text (pp. 134-140), orthography (p. 140) and metre (pp. 183-190). Alsdorf also gives a translation of the edited text portion in German. In the end he gives a glossary which includes desi words and a catalogue of Proper Names (pp. 490-502). 1. MP. vol.

See Harivamsapurana, Alsdorf, L., Introduction, pp. 133-134, Page #17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 6 DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA (v) Edition of NC : Nayakumaracariu is chronologically the second of the available works of the poet, perhaps written in 967 A. D. This work consistas of 9 Sandhis, and deals with the story of Nagakumara, illustrating the fruit of observing the Sripancami. This work was edited and published by Hiralal Jain 1933 in the Devendrakirti Jain series. The edition of the text of NC. is based upon five Mss. designated by the editor as A, B, C, D ane E fully collated. These Mss. according to the editor fall into two groups, AB and CE, D forming a link between the two. (vi) Gloss and Variants in NC : The Mss. designated as A, B and D bear glosses (tippana) on the margin. The glosses are numerous and elucidative in D manuscript. Most of the notes in all the three Mss. are identical. The author of the gloss seems to be Prabbacandra Pandit, who was also the author of MP, gloss. The Tippana on NC. was written about 1055 A. D., i.e., less than a century later than the composition of the work itself. But according to Vaidya there are two Prablacandras, one Prabhacandra who wrote a brief commentary on difficult words of MP. and a second Prabhacandra who wrote the Tippana called Panjika which seems to be more elaborate." The editor has given the variants at the bottom portion of the printed text. In the Introduction, the editor deals with the description of the Mss. and their relationship (pp. XIII-XVI); Text-constitution (p. XVII), description of gloss (p. LXIII), A brief account of the poet and his patrons (pp. XVII-XIX and p. XXIII), description of Manyak heta (p. XX), picture of Palace and Public life, Political Divisions of India as found in NC. (pp. XXVI-XXIX), analysis of the work (p. XXXVII) and Grammar and Metre of the text (pp. XLV-LVII). A Glossary, Index of personal names, Index of Geographical names and short notes are given at the end (pp. 115-208). Head-lines to each kadavaka are given in English. The useful material from the gloss is noted at times in the General glossary and sometimes in the notes. (vii) Edition of JC.: Jasa haracariu is the last of the available works of the poet composed between 968 and 972 A. D.: It was edited and published by P.L. Vaidya in 1931 in Karanja Jain series. It is a small poem containing four Sandhis dealing with the story of Jasabara, Sk. Yasodhara. The edition of JC. is based upon four Mss. designated by the editor as S, T, P and A in full and two more Mss. designated as B and H 1. See NC., Jain, Introduction, pp. XIII-XVI and pp. LXIII-LXIV. 2. See MP. volume III, Vaidya, P. L, Introduction p. XXIV. 3. See MP. Vol. III, Introduction, pp. XVII-XVIII. Page #18 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESCRIPTION OF THE BASIC SOURCES collated partially in cases of doubt. According to the editor, the text of JC. represents the secondary and amplified version of Mss. A, B and P.1 The following passages in the text are interpolations: (a) Verses in Sk. in praise of the poet's patron, Nanna, at the begining of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th pariccheda; and 7 (b) Passages from 1 5 3 to 1 8 17, 1 24 9 to 1 27 23 and from 4 22 17 b) to 4 30 15.

The gloss from the original Mss. is noted in the glossary. No description about the nature, extent and the source of this gloss has been given by the editor. When it is reproduced it is indicated by "iti tippanam" or similar fashion. The Introduction to JC. deals with description and relationship of Mss. (pp.14-17), a brief account of the poet and his date (pp. 18-24) and a chapter-wise summary of the work (pp. 28-31). A glossary and brief notes are given at the end of the text (pp. 181-185). These texts are the basic sources for the desya material we have studied. The old glosses including the Tippana of Prabhacandra that have been reproduced by various editors of the three works is mostly in a type of incorrect and late Sanskrit. At times the glosses contain vernacular words and mixed Sanskrit expressions which are of interest. Whenever they are of non-Sanskritic nature, we have noted them and they are given in a separate Appendix. III. THE PLAN OF STUDY AND THE MODE OF PRESENTATION We have first given in a classified manner the Desya material extracted from MP. along with references, from NC. and JC. to the words commonly shared with MP. Next, all the Desya words of NC. and JC. not occuring in MP. have been given alphabetically in an Appendix. This is followed by a second Appendix in which rare words collected from the old glosses of the three works are noted. In this connection it would be necessary to define the exact connotation of Desya. In other words, what is generally meant by the Dest and what sort of concept of Desi we have in view as a basis of our selection of words and expressions from the above-mentioned texts. 1. See JC., Vaidya, P, L., Introduction, pp. 14-16 and 18. 2. See JC., Vaidya, P.L., Introduction, p. 17. Page #19 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA Accordingly, we have attempted in the following section to collect from all the relevant sources old as well as modern relevant information throwing light on the scope, character and definition of Desya. At the end of that discussion we have described the concept of Desya with which we work in extracting the material presented in the Second part of the thesis. 8 Consistent with this concept of Desya we have also given there a scheme of classification of Desya and Desya-like elements. The material in the second part of the thesis is presented according to this classification. Words and expressions falling under each class are given alphabetically and all entries are numbered consecutively. Information about each word of the classified list in the Second part is given according to the following plan: 1. The lexical item under study. (In the case of verbal forms, the verbal base is extracted and given first followed by its inflected forms and derivatives; and for the substantive etc., only the stem is given); The place(s) of occurrence; Meaning or meanings in English. The basis of this meaning in any one or more of the following sources : 2. 3. 4. 5. Citations from the original texts whenever they were deemed necessary along with English translation. 6. (a) The old gloss on the texts, (b) Prakrit dictionaries, (c) The explanations of the editors of the three works, (d) Independently. Sanskrit gloss from the Mss. wherever it is available; 7. References from authorities like Desinamamala, Paialacchinamamala, Hemacandra's Prakrit Grammar, Trivikrama's Prakrit Grammar, PSM. etc. Occasionally references from Ratancandraji's Pk. dictionary and Abhidhana Rajendra Kosa are also given. References to the occurrence of the item in the following works: (a) JC. and NC. (b) Other Ap. works like PC. of Svayambhu, KC. of Kanakamara, Bh. of Dhanapala etc., (c) Pk. works like Kamsavaho, Usaniruddha etc.,.

Parallels from Marathi, Gujarati, Hindi, Konkani, Kannada, Tulu etc. (These references are casually pointed out.)1 A discussion about the interpretations or etymology wherever it was deemed necessary. In the beginning of the study is given a bibliography of the works and papers consulted for the present study and a list of the abbreviations used in the thesis. An alphabetical register of all the words discussed in this thesis is given at the end. IV THE NATURE AND CHARACTER OF DESYA ELEMENT [The list of passages defining the Desi etc.,-Desi lexicographers before Hemacandra- Hemacandra's concept of Dest-Views of modern scholars about Hemacandra's Desinamamala-Trivikrama's Pk. grammar-Views of Modern scholars on the origin etc., of Desi-Linguistic sources of Dest material collected by Hemacandra-Concept and scope of the term Desya accepted for the purpose of the present study.] The List of all Passages Defining the Terms Desi, Desya etc.. The terms Desi, Desya, Desaja have been used in the earlier Sanskrit and Prakrit literature in widely differing senses. Moreover, modern scholars who have previously examined and discussed the problem of Desi have also expressed very diverse views. Thus, there prevails a considerable amount of confusion and misunderstanding and obscurity regarding the nature and character of Desi Before we take up the consideration of the various modern views about Dest, it would be advisable to examine the views of ancient authorities on this point, because in many a case the latter form the basis of the former. Here, in this connection our plan of study would be first to collect all the important texts and references that have a bearing on the meaning, interpretation, use and scope of Dest and then try to study them critically and afterwards assess in their light the modern views on various aspects of the problem. In order to show the different shades of meaning of the terms in different contexts, the important passages, defining or explaining the 1.

From these passages it is clear that the term 'Des?', 'Desya' etc. had partly different connotation. Hence all occurrences and usages of Desya cannot be taken to have one unique meaning. The connotation of the terms 'Desi etc. as a particular type of Prakrit, later on, when the desi glossaries and lexicons started, acquired a specialised connotation, namely, a collection of words, elements of literary vocabulary, which was not easily and obviously derivable from standard Sanskrit usage as understood at that time. Peculiar regional words which penetrated Prakrit and Apabhramsa literature were particularised traditionally and they acquired a literary convention. The interpretations of the terms desi etc. according to modern scholars are as follows: (1) MW.-Desi (Bhasa) = 'the vulgar dialect of a country (opposed to Sk.), provincialism' (MBH.) Desaja' country born '. (2) Apte-Dest='the dialect of a country, one of the varieties of Pk. dialects.' Vacaspatya-Desibhasa=desa-pracalita bhasa.

Page #35 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 24 DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA These meanings of the terms Dest etc. fall under what we have already suggested. The word Desc was possibly got through back formation from desz-and was adopted by the grammarians and others as a technical term. In Sk. we have the the word desa (region) from which an Adjective desya or desiya can be formed. Corresponding to the Sk. expression desyabhasa, we would have in Pk, desibhasa and dest would be a shortened form for the expression desidbhasa, As we have already seen Desya words had gradually come to be recognised as an essential and important elment in Pk. and Ap. literary vocabulary. As a result lexicographers became active and from time to time numerous desc lexicons were compiled. A survey of their views and activities would be instructive for clarifying the meaning and scope of desz Desi Lexicographers Before Hemacandra: Let us examine from the observations and performance of ancient lexicographers what was the conception of desi. And here the greatest contribution to the elucidation of the problem has been made by Hemacapdra, whose work comes as a climax to the whole series of the efforts of desc lexicographers. But prior that we may gather whatever is known about the activity in the field of desi preceding Hemacandra. Though no collection of desis before Hemacandra is now available to us except the Paialacchinamamala of Dhanapala (which anyway offers a mixed fare of Tadbhavas and Desis), Hemacandra bas mentioned or cited several desi works or desikaras that preceded him. By Hemacandra's time desi was of long standing use. Hemacandra mentions or cites as authority the following lexicons or lexicographers in his Desinamamala : (1) Abhimanacihna (I, 144; VI, 93 etc.) (2) Avantisundari (I, 81; I, 157 ) (3) Devaraja ( VI, 58; V, 72 ) (4) Dhanapala (I, 141; III, 22 etc.) This Dhanapala appears to be diff erent from Dhanapala, the author of Paialacchinamamala as pone of the references given in tbe Desidamamala are traced to that work. (5) Drona (I 18; I, 50 etc.) 6) Gopala (1, 25; I, 31 etc.) 7) Rahulaka (IV, 4). Samba (II, 48 ) (9) Silanka ( II, 20; VI, 96 ect.) (10) Satavahana (III, 41; V, 11 etc.) (11) Padaliptacarya (I, 2). See Vaidya, P. L., 'Observations on Hemacandra's D., A, B, O.R.I., Vol. III, p. 65. Page #36 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ : NATURE OF DESYA ELEMENT. 25 Hemacandra refers to padaliptal as an authority on desi, who had written a Desisastra and quotes often from the rest of the above-mentioned authors. The works of the above mentioned authors have, however, not come down to us. As stated above Paialacchinamamala of Dhanapala (973 A. D) is the only pre-Hemacandra work in the field of Desi that has come down to us. Dhanapala calls his work a 'Namamala' in stz. 1 and in stz. 278 he designates it as Desi. But the real Desc words given by Dhana pala are very few as compared with other tadbhava words given by bim, He seems to have denoted by the term Desi a type of Prakrit or all the words of Prakrit dialects which are the Desya or vernacular languages of the time. He has given groups of synonymous expressions in his work. As Dhanapala's work is mainly a Paianamamala ( a Pk. lexicon ) and as such he has ample scope to include any number of tadbhavas, his work differs qualitatively from the Desivamamala of Hemacandra. Regarding Paiala. cchinamamala Buhler observes," the Desis constitute only a quarter of the words of the lexicon, all others are either tatsamas or tadbhavas." (See Pischel SS 35 ) Now, let us examine the real character of Dest from our point of view as defined by Hemacandra and presented by him. Hemacandra's Concept of Desi: Two basic aut most important sources of our knowledge of the Desc element in Prakrit vocabulary are the Siddhahema-sabdapusasana,' a comprehensive work on Sanskrit and Prakrit grammar and the Desinamamala both by Hemacandra (12th Cent.). The latter work is also referred to as Desisaddasamgabo (Sk. Desisabdasangraha) and Rayanavali (Sk. Ratnavali) by its author. Perhaps Desisaddasamgaha is descriptive while Rayanavali is meant to be the title of the work. In these 1. This Padalipta may be the same as the author of the lost Pk. Tarangavatikatha, who flourished round about 1st cent, A. D. This is very likely because among other things Tarangavatikatha is referred to by the author of its Sk, abridgement Tarangalola as being full of Desi words ( see the citation under Tarangalola above). Prakrit portion of Siddhahema, i, e, 8th Adhyaya has been edited several times especially by R. Pischel and P. L. Vaidya. Siddhahema edited by S. P. Pandit and revised by P.L. Vaidya (Poona, 1936) has been made use of. The work has been several times edited. (1) Desinamamala of Hem, ed. by Pischel, Bomhay, 1830. (IT) Revised edition of the same by P. V.

Page #37 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA two works, Hemacandra has recorded all the Dest material known and acceptable to him as such, In this connection he has made some observations in these two works with a view to define the scope, nature and character of Dest. We will first consider all the passages of Hemacandra that have some bearing on this point. 26 Hemacandra at the beginning of the Desinamamala gives the definition of the term Desi, and explains the scope of his work. The verses run as follows: nisesadesiparimala pallaviakuuhalaulattena | viraijjai des saddasaingaho vannakamasuhao || 2 || je lakkhanena siddha na pasiddha sakkayahihanesu | na ya gaunalakkhanasvttisambhava te iha nibaddha desavisesapasiddhii bhannamana anamtaya hunti tamha anaipaiapayattabhasavisesao dest // 4 // 2. Being very much roused by the curiosity incited through (enjoying) the fragrance of all Desi works, this collection of Desi words is composed in a convenient alphabetical order. 3 11 3. Those words are included here which are not explained in (my) grammar, not known from the Sanskrit lexicons, nor owe their origin to the power called gauni laksana (i.e., are not common words used a secondary or metaphorical sense)"1. in 4. 'Endless are the words that are used in the various provincial dialects. Therefore, the term Dest is (used here) to denote those words only which have been used since times immexorial in standard Prakrit.' Hemacandra, firstly explains the purpose of compiling a new lexicon. Though there were several earlier Desikosas current in his times, he felt that the compilers of some of these especially comparatively modern ones, were unsystematic and their works lacked proper classification. Moreover, his predecessors according to him have not properly understood the essential character of Dest and hence they have confused Dest and nonDesi. So Hemacandra's idea was to compile a desik osa that would introduce some order in the state of affairs and remove the prevalent confusion of immature new-comers in the field. This is evident from his remarks in the commentary of Desinamamala at VIII. 12 which runs as follows: adhunatanadesikaranam tadvyakhyatrnam ca kiyamta sammohah pariganyante / kim va paradosodghattanena mohapasaranartham to idam uktam ity alam bahuna || 'How many confusions and lapses of modern desi-lexicographers and their commentators shall we enumerate? But what is the use of 1. Dr. G. Buhler, The Desisabdasangraha of Hem,, Indian Antiquary vol, II. p. 19 Page #38 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ NATURE OF DESYA ELEMENT unfolding others' faults! It suffices to say that this is said in order to remove any possible misunderstanding'. If we analyse these verses with a view to see what according to Hemacandra was the subject matter and the scope of his work we find that: (1) Firstly he intends to include those words which are not hitherto explained in his grammar, Siddhahema. This means, words which are not derivable from Sanskrit by application of rules of his grammar, i. e., those which are not derivable by compounding Prakrti and Pratyaya (root and suffix). This does not mean that he has exhaustively included all such words in the Desinamamala. There is an apparent exception relating to some Desi verbal bases, as noted by Hemacandra himself in the Desinamamala.1. He has also excluded from this Desi compilation Dhatvadesas or verbal substitutes and their derivatives. The reason is not that they are not Desis, but because according to his plan of arrangements their proper place is in Prakrit grammar. As he says, and rightly so, this serves the purpose of economy." 27 (2) Secondly, he includes words which are not known in Sanskrit lexicons. That is, words which are not current in Sanskrit dictionaries known to him, in the same form or sense. These are the words, which eventhough they may be derivable from Sanskrit and explained by separation into root and suffix, are recorded here as Desis because they have changed their original sense. In other words, they were not found in Sanskrit lexicons in the sense which they acquired in Prakrit. (3) One may contend that when a particular word is used not in the primary sense, but in the secondary sense such usage can be looked upon as involving a change of sense. In that case all Sanskrit words, whenever they are used in a secondary sense would become eligible to be called Desis. Hence Hemacandra specifically states that the changed meaning that entitled a Sanskritic word to be classed as Desi should not be such as can be easily explained through Gaunilaksana or usual metaphorical mode of expression. When any such usual secondary extension of meaning fails to account for the change, the word is taken to be a Dest. (4) Fourthly, Hemacandra excludes those words which were currently used in provincial or regional dialects. His concept of Desi is not totally identical with regional dialects, that is, words current in spoken dialects of the Desas like Maharastra, Vidarbha, Abhira and others.3 The reason for excluding these provincial expressions of day-to-day speech is that they are innumerable. If he includes these, the number of Desi words will be 1. Desinamamala, I, 37 Commentary. 2. Desinamamala, I, 3 Commentary. 3. Desinamamala, I, 57 Commentary, Page #39 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA them. In infinite, and it will be impossible to record and teach all of support of this statement Hemacandra quotes the following verse: vacas pater api matir na prabhavati divyayugasahasrena ] desesu ye prasidddhas tan sabdan sarvatah samuccetum II 4 || Commentary on D. 1. 4. 28 To collect all the words known in different regions is not possible even for the intellect of Vacaspati, the Lord of Speech even if he works for thousands of divyayugas (an infinite period of time. )' In his grammar, at II, 174 Hemacandra mentions the Bhasas current in Prakrit, i. e., the vocables which were used in Maharastra, Vidarbha and Abhira (maharastravidarbhadi) and says that one can acquire a knowledge of these words from the people themselves. 5. Lastly, Hemacandra defines the source and the area of the currency of his desi words. He says that these are the words used in standard Prakrit literature from times immemorial. That is, words found in standard literary works composed by well-known poets and authors. These words having a sound literary tradition at their back are to be considered as standard, So Hemacandra prepared a list of those words found in well-known Prakrit and Apabhramsa works known to him, and which cannot be traced back or darived from Sanskrit by applying rules of grammar. The purpose of compiling such a lexicon was obviously to aid the budding poets and aspiring authors who wanted to write Apabhramsa and Prakrit works, in acquiring the necessary literary vocabulary. The Desinamamala which was intended to be an up-to-date thesaurus of literary lexicography of non-tatsama and non-tadbhava Pk. words supplied the needs of Pk. readers and writers in the same manner as Amarakosa did for the Sanskrit ones. This is what Hemacandra had to say about his work. Now, let us consider whether Hemacandra's performace is consistent with his scope and definition of Dest given by him. The question has been previously examined by several scholars. Views of modern scholars about Hemacandra's Desinamamala: Many modern scholars have accused Hemacandra of including many Tadbhava words in the Desinamamala through ignorance. Buhler says that Hemacandra inspite of his rare knowledge of Sanskrit and Prakrit, his large library and numerous assistants has mistaken Tadbhavas and Tatsamas for Dest forms. Pischel says that like Dhanapala, Hemacandra also includes tatsamas and tadbhavas under Dest, but in proportion to the volume of Paialacchinamamala (Gottingen, 1878) Introduction, pp. 12-13 1. Page #40 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ NATURE OF DESYA ELEMENT 29 the work, their number is very small, and for a knowledge of Pk. it is extra-ordinarily essential. Gune also charges Hem acandra with having put down certain Sk. words as Desis. He accuses Hemacandra that the latter has omitted to mention real Desis.. Vaidya says that a majority of these words are traceable to Sk, Vaidya also says that modern philology has made considerable advace in recent years to find fault with Hemacandra's definition of the term Desr, but we owe to Hemiacandra a deep debt of gratitude to have preserved for us a tremendously exhaustive list of such words and their senses. Chatterji says that the Desinamamala of Hemacandra has scores of "Tadbhava desr' words. 4 Upadhye says that Hemacandra has not abided by his definition of Desc words". Ramanujaswami also criticises Hemacandra saying that he consciously or unconsciously violates the principles laid down by himself. Muralydhar Banerjee in his Introduction to Desinamamala tries to defend Hemacaudra against the strictures saying that by and large, Hemacandra follows his definition of Desi and that sometimes he departs from that definition out of regard to the practice of his predecessors, and whenever he does this he gives his reason for the departure.' This defence has been accepted by Rasiklal Parikh in his Introduction to Hemacandra's Kavyanusasana volume II (p. 297) and M. C. Modi in his Hemasamiksa (pp. 144-146). But Manilal Patel does not find it acceptable. According to Patel Hemacandra tried to introduce some order in the conflicting definitions of Desi prevalent before him and he excluded tatsama and tadbhava from his Desc collection only in theory. But Patel also feels that there must be some reason behind Hemacandra's transgression. Accordingly, it becomes necessary for us to consider the controversial issue afresh. In a way, it is hardly useful to accuse or justify Hemacandra for his compilation. We must be thankful to him for whatever invaluable Middle Indo-Aryan lipguistic material he has preserved for us in quite an authentic and scientific manner. Description and scope of Hemacandra's Desinamamala: The whole materjal collected by Hemacandra amounts to about 4,000 words (3,978 according to Banerjee). 9 2. See Pischel 36.

Page #41 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 30 DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA The words in the Desinamamala are arranged into eight Vargas according to the initial letter of the words. They contain in order, words beginning with the vowels, the gutturals, the palatals, the cerebrals, the dentals, the labials, the semivowels and the spirents. In each section words with one meaning are given first and then the homionyms. In each again, the words are arranged according to the number of syllables contained in them in the order of disyllabic, trisyllabic, tetrasyllabic and so forth. At the end of words of a certain number of syllables are added the Dhatvadesas or the verbal substitutes which contain the same number of syllables. As Hemacaudra does not consider them as real desi-words, he does not include them in the verses which form the body of the work but adds them in the commentary along with particles and other words taught in his grammar. 1 The text of Desinanamala is written in Pk. Gathas containing the Desi words with Pk. equivalents. Sometimes these Pk. equivalents are given in other Desi words. The commentary explains each Desi word in Sanskrit, and contains also frequently discussious on doubtful forms and meanings. Gathas are composed by Hemacandra to illustrate the usages of Desis explained. Hemicaudra has inaugurated a new era in Pk, lexicography and the experiment made by him was really a success. He has excluded a large number of tadbhavas and tatsanas from his lexicon. In th: earlier Desikosas both Dhatvadesas and Destsabdas were mingled together. Hemacandra separated them and dealt with Dhatvadesas in the IV Pada Sutras 1-259 of his Prakrit Grammar, and the Dest words in his Desinamamala. He arranges the adesas according to the initial letter of the Sk. root, e.g., kath-gam., etc. In this connection we may note that Hemacandra held that the so-called Dhatvadesas were in reality roots drawn from the stock of Desi vocables and that they were shown technically substitutes for Sanskrit roots with the simple object that they could, that way, be used to form verbal derivatives with the help of suffixes. ( Compare H. II. 174) He also deals with the nipatas or dest words under one Sutra namely H. II. 174. of the two available Desikosas, that of Hemacandra is undoubtedly more valuable for a knowledge of desc material. As stated before Dhanapala's kosa is of very little use as he mixes dest words with hoards of tatsama and tadbhava words. Hemacandra's work eliminates the other two classes of words to a great extent and gives a large number 1. Desinamamala, ed. by Ramanujaswami, Introduction, p. 6. 2. Desinamamala, Ramanujaswami, P. V. Introduction, p. 6. Page #42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ NATURE OF DESVA ELEMENT of dest words. Hemacandra in his work has taken the trouble of fixing the proper meaning of words by reference to the works of others, and pointing out the mistakes occurring therein,1 whereas the previous lexicographers assigned to the words meanings which they thought proper not always caring to refer to the others, and thus sometimes each differed from the other.2 In the same way Hemacandra by his vast knowledge of Pk. literature, fixes the forms and meanings of many words which have been wrongly quoted by other lexicographers. He thus fulfils the object with which he wrote his desikosa, namely, "mohapasaranam." In every case of difference of opinion, he takes care to point out the forms or meanings of words favoured by other authors, "" Buhler was the first scholar to notice the importance of Desinamamala as the Desinamamala was discovered by him. He has given the first notice of it in the Indian Antiquary vol. II. pp. 17-21. He expresses the following view about Hemacandra's Desinamamala, More than once the example of his predecessors has moved the author to admit verbal derivatives which ought not to have been included. He discusses every one of these cases in the commentary, and tries to excuse his departure from his general rule. In this respect, as well as by the careful examination of the evidence regarding doubtful words, he shows his scholarly taste and raises himself far above the common book-makers." " Many a times Hemacandra quotes words which the earlier authorities have considered as desi. But he tries to derive them from Sk.5 At times, when he includes some tadbhava words, he himself says that it is possible to derive from Sk. some of the words considered by him as Dest. He says that he has included them because they are not quite well known in Sk. or in order to enlighten people who are adept in Pk. but who do not know Sk. properly. Lastly, as Pischel remarks, the merit of the work lies in its alphabetical arrangement. (Pischel SS 36). Hemacandra's work in the field of Desi is so exhaustive that it superseded most of the earlier Desi collections, while most of the later works in this field have drawn largely upon Hemacandra's vocabulary. Among these we may mention the following: 1. Prakrta Sabdanusasana of Trivikrama (1236-1300 A. D. ). 2. Prakrta-rupavatara of Simharaja (1300-1400 A. D.) and 3. Sadbhasacandrika of Laksmidhara (1541-1565 A. D. ). 1. See e. g. D. VI. 97, D. VIII and D. VIII. 17 2. See Desinamamala, Ramanujaswami, P. V. Introduction, p. 4 Cf. e. g. D. I. 41 and D. I. 26.

He has compressed the subject matter of the two works, viz., Desinamamala and Siddhahema of Hemacandra into one. Hemacandra's work has greater clarity than Trivikrama's. Trivikrama's Sutrapatha contains 1036 Sutras divided into twelve fadas and three adhyayas, as against 1119 in four padas of the eighth adhyaya of Hemacandra's Siddhahema. The subject matter covered by both is almost the same. Trivikrama has newly added a few sutras, of which 17 relate to pew technical terms used by Trivikrama; four sutras relate to the groups of Desc words for which Hemacandra has only one sutra in his grammar, and an entire work, the Desinamamala and the remaining sutras add a few new words not treated by Hemacandra. 1 Trivikrama's work contains about 1600 Desl words. His special contributions are the topics 1, 3, 106; 1, 4, 121; 2, 1, 30; 3, 1, 132 and 3, 4, 72, in which he has collected together the words that cannot be regulated according to the rules of grammar, and in a great measure, belong to the category of Desi; thus for instance in 3, 4, 72 they are expressly designated desyah. ; Trivikrama has classified the desc words into six groups. But he does not seem to follow any definite principle in giving Dhatvadesas; he has split them up into 2. 4. and 3.1 and also in 3. 4. Among the list of dest words, we find a few which are not traceable to Desipamamala. Such words may be treated as Trivikrama's contribution. He might have added them anew from contemporary sources or sources later than Hemacandra.3 The other two works, namely Prakstarupavatara and Sadbhasacandrika are meagre and less authentic compared to Hemacandra's and Trivikrama's grammar. Moreover they are mainly based on Trivikrama's grammar. Views of Modern Scholars on the Origin, Nature and Character of Desi and Their Contribution in this Field : Now, let us examine the modern efforts at studying the desya material. A great controversy has raged anyong the modern scholars as regards the exact significance, origin, character and source of desz. Some scholars have studied these points and expressed their view regardnig dest at times basing their investigation on ancient authorities. Some scholars have done lexical work like collection of dest words and their interpretations, compilation of Pk. dictionaries, editing of Pk. and Ap. texts and similar studies and there, this has occasioned expression of their views on the problem of desi. 1.

Banerjee, Ramanujaswami, Alsdorf, gloomfield, Amrita Row, Tagare, Bhayani, Ghatge, Manilal Patel, Doshi, Gandhi, Modi, Helen Johnson, Katre and others. Beames in his Comparative Grammar of the Modern Aryan Lan. guages of India' gives the following account of Desajas: " Desajas are those words which cannot be derived from any Sk. word and are therefore considered to have been borrowed from the aborigines of the country or invented by the Aryans in post-Sanskritic times : 1 A, F. R. Hoernle gives the following views on Desya: "......... Native grammarians add the desya as a third division to the 'tatsama' and 'tadbhava.' The term Desya means literally belonging to the country i. e. provincial or perhaps aboriginal'. They designate by this name all those words which they are unable to derive satisfactorily to themselves from some Sk. word and therefore consider to have had their origin in the country".. R. G. Bhandarkar defines desya as follows: "Desyas are such as cannot be derived from Sanskrit and must be referred to another source,"3 He says that a great many words set down as Desyas, on close exa. mination will be found to be Tadbhavas. He, however, admits the existence of a Desi element in the Prakrits and the vernaculars and says that these words must have penetrated into the dialects from the languages of the aborigines whom the Aryans conquered. He has traced a number of Desc words to modern vernaculars like Marathi. He has tried to trace some more words to Sk. and says that these Tadbhavas differ from ordinary Tadbhayas in having undergone great corruption." George Grierson in "The Linguistic Survey of India" gives the following views on Desya words: "Another class of words is also to be mentioned, the 1.

It included all words which the grammarians were unable to refer to Sk. simply through the ignorance of the writers who catalogued them. Modern scholars can refer most of these to Sk. like any other Tadbhavas. A few others are words borrowed from Munda or Dravidian languages. The great majority are however words derived from dialects of the Primary Prakrits which were not that from which classical Sk.1 has descended. They are the true Tadbhavas although not in the sense given to that word by 'Indian grammarians', in whose philosophy the existence of such ancient dialects was not dreamed of. These Desya words were local dialectic forms, and as might be expected are found most commonly in literary works hailing from countries like Gujarat, far away from the natural home of classical Sk. the 'Madhyadesa'. For our purpose they may be considered as identical with Tadbhavas " 3 Grierson has also given a monograph on the Pk. Dhalvadesas in the Memoirs of the Asiatic Society of Bengal". In this work he has abstracted all the Dhatvadesas from the following works: 1. Siddhahema of Hemacandra and also his Desinamamala, 2. The Praklta Prakasa of Vararuci, 3. The Sanksiptasara of Kramadisvara, 4. The Prakrta-Kalpataru of Ramasarman and The Praksta Sarvasya of Markandeya. He has given the Dhatvadesas collected from the above mentioned works in two indexes. G. Buhler has edited the Paialacchinamamala of Dhana pala and has discussed Desi in the Introduction. He has given a brief account of the Desinamamala in his article on "The Desisabdasangraba of Hemacandra". R, Pischel's four important works in this field are (1) Materialen Zur Kenntnis des Apabhramsa, Berlin, 1902; (2) Grammatic der Prakrit-Sprachen, Strassburg, 1900. The latter has been translated into English by 1. The same view regarding Desi is expressed in the article. Prakrit' in Encyclopaedia Britannica, edition, XI p. 252. Banerjee in his Intro. to Desinamamala. p. XXVI says, " A majority of these words may be called "Tadbhavas' if Tat' is here taken to mean the Primary Prakrits instead of Sk., though a few of these may have been borrowed from Munda or Dravidian", 3.

They consider all such words to belong to this class as they cannot trace them back to Sk. either in form or in meaning. It depends upon their knowledge of Sk. and ability in etymologising that some of them call a word to be desya, while others include it either among the tatsamas or among the tadbhavas. Besides, we have many words that ed as desi, even though they go back to genuine Sk. roots, simply be cause they do not have closely corresponding Sk. words...... Among the desya words are included the largely numerous verb-forms, that are designated as dhalvadesas " root substitutes " by grammarians, and they cover much space in Indian giammars. Here Sk, fails miserably in rendering any help, though agreement among the new Indian languages is most rigorous. As the name indicates, by desya people have come to understand also "provincialistus''. 4 Jacobi has given a detailed discussion on the origin, nature and character of Desi in his Introduction to Bhavisattakaha in German." As regards the origin of Desi words Jacobi says that the desabhasas (i,e. the provincial speeches ) cannot be taken to be the absolute sources of such speech elements. Because the scanty representation and survival of the Desc words in the N. I. A. dialects go directly against such an assumption of the Desabhasas as being the only sources of the Desis, Yet it is undeniable that the Desabhasas greatly contributed the swelling of such indigenous vocables. Jacobi's views on the nature and character of desya material is as follows: "We venture to investigate another important source-which has preserved undou tedly very old speech-elements from the popular dialectsnamely the Dhalvadesas and Desasabdas, collected by the Indian authors. The former are verbs which either cannot be referred to Sanskrit proto. types or can be derived from them only against the usual phonetic rules. The remaining words mostly of similar character-namely the nominal stems are called the Desisabdas. (Here Jacobi notes at a foot note, "Those 1. Comparative Grammar of Prakrit Languages by R.

" Most of the Desi appear as petrifactions of the older literary records and comparatively a small portion seems to have been granted a long duration of existence." Jacobi was the first scholar to distinguish between Apabhramsa and Dest. He says that there cannot be total identification between Desc and A pabhramsa words; since if the two were identical in the Bh. the number of such Desc words, which form only 5% of the total number of 4,000 words of Desinamamala, would have been far more greater. So it is not possible to equate Apabhramsa with Desabbasa. 3 He defines Apabhramsa as a poetic speech (i. e. Dichterssprache) which is shaped from the liter. ary Pk. with the adoption of the inflections, pronouns, adverbs, etc. and so also a limited portion of the existing stock of vocables of the popular speech.* Besides, Jacobi has detected some words of Telugu origin in Bh. He has also examined the vocabulary of Bh. in order to make an approximate of the relation of the Desis with the Indo-Aryan dialects. P. D. Gune calls Desya or Dest as "country words ". He says although it could be shown that some of these words are real Tadbhavas, in the main they are words of other than Sk. extraction. He then gives a few examples of words which according to him are wrongly put down by Hemacandra as Desis. He further says that some of the words collected by Dhanapala and Hemacandra are clearly Dravidian. In the Introduction to Bh. of Dhanapala, Gune gives a detailed acco. unt of Apabhramsa and a short note on Hemacandra's Grammar and his Desinamamala. He says that Hemacandra has included under Desis what does not deserve to be there. In support of this statem a list of words from Desinamamala and tries to trace those words to Sk. He further says many of these words are coined by Pk. literary men and poets for their purpose. He also feels that a vast majority has yet to be traced to their source.? 1.

S. K. Chatterji. His two main works, viz., "Origin and Development of Bengali language " and " 'Indo-Aryan and Hindi," and his paper on "Polyglottism in Indo-Aryan" are relevant for our propose. Chatterji in " Origin and Development of Bengali Language" has explained the term Desc and observed thus: " The term Desi in its present day application embraces a numerous class of words which cannot be traced to Aryan roots and which obviously were derived from the pre-Aryan languages of the country, Dravi. dian and Kol. The older grammarians, however, included within this term all onomatopoetic and other words which could not be traced to Sk., and also they classed as Desi quite a number of genuine Tadbhavas, which are as much Aryan as Sk, itself, because their derivation happened to be obscure and not obviously traceable to Sk., or because their equ. ivalents were not used in Sk. The true Desc words are relics from the dialects employed in the land before the masses took up the Aryan speech, and the Dravidian and other non-Aryan loan-words in Vedic can be also described as forming a desi-element in OIA." ? In "Indo-Aryan and Hindi ", Chatterji writes about Desi as follows: " The Desc element in MIA. is another absorbing and frequently baffling topic. A good many Desc words are just inherited Aryan words in MIA, only the carelessness of some early granimarian has failed to identify them as Tadbhavas. Such words are not too few in a work like the Desiva. mamala.. Some are onomatopoetic formations."3 ^ Olddon. ass. In "Polyglottism in Indo-Aryan "4 Chatterji gives a five-fold class. ification of words which form the entire stock of vocables in Indo-Aryan, Regarding the origin of non-Aryan element in Old and Middle Indo-Aryan and N. I. A., Chatterji says that contact with speakers of foreign languages, who came to India as conquerors and stayed on, contact which became largely one of mutual cultural influence, was responsible for the introduction into Indian languages of a number of foreign words. Chatterji calls the indigenous non-Aryan elements as Desz." 1. See History of Sk. Literature, Keith, A. B. p. 34. 2. Origin and Development of Bengali Language, Chatterji, S. K., pp. 191 ff. 3.

P. L. Vaidya in his article" Observations on Hemacandra's Desi. namamala "2 gives his observations on the desi lexicons preceding Hemacandra's Desinamamala and the meaning of the term desi. He also gives a list of desi words preserved in Marathi and its dialects. He says that a part of the words in the Desinamamala are genuine desi words and the principal source of these words is Old Maharastri. He defines the term desi as follows: "I would call those words dest that could not show even the remotest connection with genuine Sk. words and are exclusively found in Pk. literature." He has classified the words in the Desitamamala under eight groups. Vaidya has edited Hemacandra's Prakrit Grammar and Trivikrama's Pk. Grammar, JC. and MP. In the Introduction to Trivikrama's grammar he has briefly discussed Dest etc. and at the end of the text has given an Index of Desc words found in the text with suitable references to Hemacandra's grammar or Desinainamala. He has also given dhatvadesas in an Appendix. In the notes to his edition of Hemacandra's grammar he has noted the dest words from the text and given parallels from Marathi etc. wherever possible. Similarly in the notes to the three volumes of MP. and JC. edited by him, and in the glossary to JC. he has noted some of the dest words occurring in the texts. Hiralal Jain has edited Ap. works like Savayadhamma Doha, Pahuda Doha,6 Karakamda Cariu? and Nayakumara Cariu." In the general glossary of the last mentioned three works, he has indicated the desi words with an Asterisk giving parallels from other works at times and also comparing with cognate froms in N. I.

He has also discussed this topic in his article "Apabhramsa Bhasa aur Sahitya" i and in his article "Apabhrarsa Studies" in Allahabad University Studies, 1925, vol. I. He has quoted from ancient uthorities like Bharata. Rudrata, Vagbhata and others in his abovementioned discussion and has come to the conclusion that Ap. is identical with Desibhasa. Jain feels that the authors have been using Desibhasa and Ap. as mutually interchangeable. He further says that the poets themselves have called their language Desi bhasa and have never liked to use the word Ap. for their language while grammarians have called it invariably by the latter name. 2 Thus, he equates Desi with Apabhramsa and interprets the passages accordingly. In his article on "Svayambhu and his two Poems in Ap." Jain surmises that Svayambhu might have to his credit a lexicon probably of Ap. or Desi words. But Bhayani refers to this and differs from him taking the references in a general way." Hargovind Das Sheth has discussed the problem of Desi in the Introduction to his Paia-sadda-mahannayo (sk. Praksta-sabda-maharnavah). He agrees with Grierson regarding the source of dest words and ssay that they are very ancient and their source is Primary Prakrits or Provincial dialects of Vedic times. He also refutes the theory of the NonAryan Origin of desi words. In PSM. Sheth notes the Desi words with suitable references to De. sinamamala and Paialacchinamamala. But he does not give any criteria why he considers these words as desi. A. N. Upadhye has edited several Pk., Ap. and Jain Sk. texts like Kamsavaho, Usaniruddha, Candralekha,' Lilaval,* Paramatmaprakasa, Brhatkathakosa 10 and Pravacanasara (Pk, work).

He has given a list of words peculiar to Jaina Sk. occurring in Bshatkathakosa of Harisena (10th Cent. A. D. )' in his Introduction to this work. He has made a five-fold classification of peculiarly Jain Sk. words such as found in works like BIbatkathakosa, namely, 1. Words recorded in Lexicons and which are of rare usage, 2. Back-formations, 3. Hyper-Sanskritisms, 4. Prakritisms straight-way borrowed from Prakrit and 5. Vernaculars. In the notes or glossaries to the above mentioned texts edited by him he has noted down the desc words. He expresses his view regarding Desi as follows: "The source of the so-called dest words including roots is a problem. Some appear to have been borrowed from the Dravidian languages; some are obscure Sk. words, changed in sound or sense beyond easy recognition; many of them were used in Indo-Aryan popular speeches but were not admitted in the standardised and refined literary usage; and some had currency in specific areas. Lastly a few remain as difficult to be explained". Maralydhar Banerjee has edited Hemacandra's Desinamamala, in the Introduction to which he discusses the problem of desi. He expresses the following views about desz: "The theory of the Non-Aryan Origin of dest words is not borne out by investigations into the Non-Aryan languages. Beyond repeating vague generalities no scholar has yet shown that the dest words are found in any of the Non-Aryan languages or, if found, they are the original property of those languages and were not borrowed by the Non-Aryans from the Aryan vernaculars of the provinces where they came in contact with the Aryan settlers. It is quite possible that those desc words that cannot be traced to Sk. origin have came from the various 'Desabhasas' - or provincial vernaculars of Aryan origin of the outlying provinces - which have perished transmitting these words in their modified forms to the Literary Prakrits or to the Modern Aryan Vernaculars of those provinces that succeeded them. The desi words have no equivalents in Sk. because Sk. has developed from the 'Desabhasa' of Madhyadesa which is preserved in a later literary form in " Sauraseni ".

If a. small residuum of dest words cannot be thus traced to Modern IndoAryan vernaculars but are found in the Non-Aryan languages alone then these may be regarded as borrowed from the latter. No final conclusion in this matter can be drawn until the investigation into the origin of the dest words on the above method is completed. Indeed in the present state of our knowledge the boundary line separating the tadbhava and dest words is a shifting one and with the advance of knowledge more and more desc words are being discovered to be tadbhavas. Ramanujaswami has revised the Desinamamala edited previously by R. Pischel in 1880. In the introduction to his edition of Desinamamala he has discussed the problem of dest with suitable examples to illustrate his points. He has expressed his views regarding the desya words as follows: "Desya words are those which do not appear to have any connection with Sanskrit in accordance with the rules laid down in Prakrit grammars and hence show no distinction of praksti and pratyaya, or in other words are underivable from Sk. but are current in the language from times immemorial and are freely used by poets in their composi. tions; e.g. pottar, uro etc... The Desc words which do not obey laws are underivable from Sk. and have to be learnt from the usage of the speakers of the language and from kosas compiled therefrom."3 He further says that the Desinamamala contains a certain number of words with an un-Aryan look which show undoubted relationship with languages other than Sk., and a number of them show close resemiblance to words in the Dravidian languages. He traces some of them to Tamil, Telugu, Kannada etc. He also says that Hemacandra's Desi includes not only Sanskritic words but also non-Sanskritic, both Indian and foreign. Regarding the conception of the expression Desi he says, "Many of the Dest words are of Sanskritic origin; but owing to the large aniount of corru. ption they have undergone during the many centuries of their use, they do not conform to the phonetic laws recognised by the grammarians or in other words their connection with Sk. is obscured.

A small proportion of them is of non-Indo-European descent and may have been obtained from the language of the people who were inhabiting the country before the advent of the Aryans into it. In Hem acandra's desi, a few recent borrowings from Persian and Arabic are also included as they might have become current in the language of the country some centuries before his time". I He has given a glossary which includes those words which Hemacandra considers as Desi at the end of the text. He had added another index which includes all words considered by other lexicograpbers but derived from Sk, by Hemacandra in the Desinamamala or in his grammar. He has given English rendering of all the Desya expressions of Desinamamala . In certain cases he has tried to suggest derivations to the Desc words, He has also given at the end an index of Dhalvadesas from the Desinamamala and Hemacandra's grammar. Lastly, he has given a list of the interjectional and other particles found in the above mentioned works of Hemacandra. Amrita Row in his article, "The Dravidian Element in Prakrit" gives Dravidian affinities of a few Desi words from the Deslpamamala of Hema. candra. He says that while several provincialisms given in the Desinamamala can be traced back to Dravidian origin, some go back to Persian. He gives a few examples in support of this." G. V. Tagare in his "Historical Grammar of Ap.", Poona, 1948 gives the following views regarding Desi 3 : "The term 'desc, as applied to words is different in implication than when applied to a dialect. 'Desi bbasa' is generally the spoken language of a particular province whether it be Mabarastri Pk. or Ap. or one of the N.I.A. language. Desi as applied to a word implies a word non-derivable froin Sk., expressing thereby the limits of the philological studies of the author who classes it thus. These words are found in Pk., Ap, and NIA. The identification of Desi 'with non-Aryan element in IA is a hasty conclusion of Caldwell and his followers, as the problem is yet to be adequately studied by scholars with sound grounding in IA., Dravidian and Austro-Asiatic Philology." 1.

In the indexes to the 3 volumes of PC and SR and Paumasiricariu he has noted down the Desi words occurring in the texts and added brief notes and also given cognates from N.I.A, languages like Gujarati wherever possble. In Vagvyapara he has discussed in detail a number of desya-like words current in Gujarati giving etymological notes and their cognates in N.I.A. languages. In the Introduction to Siddhahema, he has discussed the relationship of Ap. with Desi-bhasa with suitable quotations from ancient authori ties like Bharata, Rudrata, Vagbhata and others.

If we leave aside the one-sided views which either equate Desya wholly and completely with obscure Tadbhavas or which derive them totally fron non-Sk. i.e. Indo-European source or alternatively from foreign sources, we can see that nost of the modern scholars agree that Desya or Desz is a very loose label applied by early grammarians and lexicographers to a section of MIA lexical material of a heterogeneous character. Together they trace back the origin of Desya words to 1) Sk. (through niore or less obvious phonological or semantic development), 2) non-Sanskritic element inherited from Indo-European, 3) non-IndoAryan Indian languages like Dravidian and Munda, 4) non Indian languages like Persian, Saka, etc, We can put the substance of these views in a more systematic manner and illustrate them from Hemacandra's Desc collection as follows: Linguistic sources of Desi material collected by Hemacandra' Let us now examine from a modern point of view the liuguistic source and character of the material collected by Hemacandra, Page #56 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ NATURE OF DESYA ELEMENT. The Desc material collected by Hemacandra can be classified under the following types: 1. A part of it consists of good Sanskrit loan words which are used with changed connotation. At tinies, words derivable from Sk. are not considered by Hemacandra as tadbhavas because they are used in a sense different from that of the original Sk. e. g. gharayado (Sk. Shacandra), abbhapisaa (Sk. abhrapisaca), chuddahira (Sk. ksudrahira), etc. 2. Desinamamala contains those words which are not considered by Hemacandra as tadbhavas, because a normal application of rules of derivation fails to identify them. In other words, the vocables have undergone some drastic or not easily identifiable phonological change,? e. g., kuhado (Sk, kubja), challi (Sk. salya), padohara (Sk. prsthagsha) and others. Hemacandra might not have suspected their Sk, origin. 3. Hemacandra has included in his lexicon some words which are taught or derived from words taught by Sk. writers in their lexicons and works. E. g., marala, phada, varaitta, purilladeva and others. With the help of up-to-date facilities and the means and material before us we are in a better position to say whether a word is tadbhava or desi. But Hema andra cannot be expected to have the same facilities and scope. In such cases he might be following the authority of some earlier lexicographers. We also find in Desinamamala those words which go back to pre-classi. cal period of Sanskrit, i.e., Vedic and an element which possibly goes back to pre-Indo-Aryan, i.e. Indo-European period.' Parallels to these cau be found in cognate Indo-European languages like Greek, Latin, German etc. That element was lost to literary stream of language, and it found its use in Prakrit. R. L. Turner has given a list of Indo-European Reconstruction in his Dictionary of the Nepali language (p.657). L. H. Gray in his article "Fifteen Prakrit Indo-European Etymologies" also has tried to derive underivable Desi element. (JAOS, 60, pp. 360-369). 5. Hemacandra has also included in Desc collection a few recent borrow. ings from Persian and Arabic, as they might have become current in the language of the country some centuries before his time.3 E.g. angutthalan, 'ring, Persian angustari, Pehlvi angust; dattharo 'handkerchief,'' Persian dastar, 'a napkin, towel 4 6. Other sources are Dravidian and Munda. Over and above the IndoAryan branch of languages belonging to Indo-European family, we have in India other three families of languages, namely, Dravidian, Sino1.

See Indian Antiquary, vol, XLVI, p. 34, Page #57 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 46 DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA Tibetan, and Kol-Munda or (Austric). Because of long contacts some of the element might have crept in Indo-Aryan also and some of Dest words might owe their origin to them. Out of them Dravidian is most important. A good many of the words found in the Desinamamala show close resemblance to words in the Dravidian languages. E.g., tatti (Ta., Kan., Tu. Mal., tatta frame of bamboos'), kalla (Te., Kan. kallu. Ta. kal 'toddy'), sippa (Kan. sippe='rin 1'), nesara (Kan. nesar='sun', Ta. neyir 'su.-shine', Mal. ner-'day-light'), sula (Kan. sule='a harlot'), pulli (Kan. puli, Ta., Te., Mal., Tu. pili-'a tiger'), pavo (Kan. pavu, Te. pamu, Ta. pana snake'), kolitta (Kan. Ta. kolli, Mal., Te, kolavi= 'a firebrand'), alta (Kan. atte, Ta. atter mother-in-law, father's sister' ), amma (Kan., Ta. amma, Te., Mal. ame='mother'), jhadi (Kan. jadi 'a long con. tinued fine small rain') and others Among those identified apparently as Darvioian, some caution is required. We may not be sure who is the borrower and who borrowed. We can have two criteria for deciding this question: I, Chronology, i.e. from when the word is attested in Indo-Aryan or Indo-Dravidian, 2. If a particular word is productive, i.e., numerous derivatives of that word are formed in a language, we can take that word to be belonging to that language. By applying these criteria we can decide the alleged Dravidian sources. The Etymological Dictionary of Dravidian Languages by Burrow and Emeneu of U.S.A. also may help us to a great extent to determine this. Next is the Munda source. Some work in this field is done by F.B. J. Kuiper in his "Proto-Munda words in Sanskrit", Amsterdam, 1948. Similarly, Przyluski and Sylvain Levi1 have done some work on preAryan and pre-Dravidian, Chatterji in this connection says as follows: "The new method inaugurated by J. Przyluski in the study of IA borrowings from Kol, by comparing forms in the Austro-Asiatic and Austro-nesian languages, has led to some sure results in this most obscure branch of IA etymology".2 7. Lastly, numerous foreign tribes from early times, Ksatrapas, Yavanas, Sakas, Hunas, Chinese, etc. have migrated and settled in India. Their contact might have influenced the Indian languages. But this remains a guess. 1. "Pre-Aryan and Pre-Dravidian in India", Sylvain Levi, translated by Bagchi. 2. See Chatterji, Origin & Development of Bengali Language, Calcutta, 1926. 3. We can investigate Hemacandra's Desi collection from another point of view also. It will be worthwhile studying what percentage of Desi words are inherited by different NIA. languages, how much is common between them, which particular language has inherited most and which least, We can prapare a sort of statistical study how much is the common inheritance and how much is peculiar to various languages and this can throw considerable light on the regional source of Desi words. Page #58 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ NATURE OF DESVA ELEMENT Concept and Scope of Desya accepted for the purpose of the present study: This description of the origin, source and character of Desc element is based on a historical approach. But the chief purpose of the present study based on the language of Puspadanta is more or less to extract - and study that portion of Puspadanta's vocabulary which cannot be described as obvious and usually identifiable Tadbhavas. Hence it was necessary for us to include in our study not only the items we consider as genuine Desya but also those that were rare, which were traditionally considered Desya or that corresponded to the words la belled as late Sanskrit by modern scholars and words which seem to depart from the usual and normal course of derivation from Sanskrit. In other words, we have enlarged the scope to include rare words in our study. For such heterogeneous material we found the following scheme of classification quite suitable. This broad classification we have suggested availing our. selves of the works and suggestions of some earlier scholars. In the very nature of things we cannot claim logical strictness or rigidity for the suggested scheme. With some arguing, one an reduce or increase a number of categories, transfer a few items from one category to another and make some minor adjustments according to one's choice and taste. But by and large we hope the scheme is quite convenient and succeeds in introducing some valid order in what passes 'under the "hold-all" name of Desya, Desya-like and obscure words. In the material collected we have tried to distinguish different grades and classes and set apart what from a stricter point of view can be called Desc words proper. The material is broadly divided under four heads. We have separated Desyalike items, Onomatopoetics and foreign loans from the Desya words strictly so-called. To the group called Desya-like items we have assigned all those words which can be partly or wholly derived from Sk.-including Tadbhavas with a changed or specialised meaning, Tadbhavas with peculiarly Prakrit suffixation, MIA analogical formations and some items from late Sk., lexical and similar sources. The detailed scheme of classification is as follows; A. Desya-like items and rare items 1. Items only derivable from Sk. 2. Tadbhavas with specialised or changed meaning. 3. Items partly derivable from Sk. a) Items formed by Pk. suffixation. b) Analogical formation. c) Items derived through any other mode. 4. Itens that bave corespondepts only in late Sk. lexicops and simi. lar sources.

Foreign loans. a) Words of Dravidian origin. b) Words of Persian origin. C. 7. The rest (i.e. pure Desi words). V. ROLE OF DESYA ELEMENT IN PRAKRIT APABHRAMSA IN GENERAL AND IN PUSPADANTA'S WORKS IN PARTICULAR AND [The role of Desya element in Pk. & Ap.-Observations on Desya and rare linguistic material found in Puspadanta.] Role of Desya element in Pk. and Ap. vocabulary:. As observed at the very outset Desya words formed a very important element of the Middle Indo-Aryan and New Indo-Aryan vocabulary. The basis of the literary Prakrits was primarily the spoken dialects of different regions. They contained a core of words in familiar use which was not represented in Sk. As Prakrits came to be adopted more and more for literary purposes, this local and regional element of their vocabulary began to be felt more and more difficult of understanding. As a result, there developed a need of compiling reference lists of such obscure words and along side with it there emerged a tendency to eschew such words and cultivate a more Sanskrit-like Prakrit. But as Ap. attained the status of a literary medium the situation was again altered. In virtue of the greater proximity of Ap. to the spoken idioms more and more local and regional words found there way in the literary language. Grierson and Jacobi have shed instructive light on these developments in MIA, In his Linguistic Survey of India Grierson states that besides the cultivation of the literary Prakrits, there was under the initiative of the less literate people some culture of the local Pk. speeches, too, in which, there appeared narrative poems contrived to suit the popular tastes. As these narrative poems were intended for the general public, they borrowed freely from the forms of speech current in the locality, where each was composed. In this way a work composed in Oudh would widely differ in its vocabulary and method of expression from one composed in Gujarat, though both of them were written in Pk. The popular words known as 'Desya' or 'local' used in such Pk. works had no literary authority and were not, as a rule, admitted into literary Prakrit. As the local speeches, from which these words were borrowed, 1. In the 9th Century A.D. we find Kouhala, the author of the famous Pk, katha Lilavai sounding a caution against the prolific use of Desi in the literary Pk. (Lilavai, Stz. 41) Page #60 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ ROLE OF DESYA ELEMENT 49 were short-lived and subject to quick changes and modifications, the narrative poems too, which admitted such vocables, became easily unintelligible due to the preponderance of the latter and required translation, if they were to be preserved and given some degree of permanence. Such a task, it is obvious, necessitated a compilation of the local words, as a result of which we find the Desikosa or the Desinamamala. The local variations of Pk., rather the local speeches which showed the exuberance of local forms and idioms, were called Apabbramsas and they varied from place to place." Regarding the Pk. katba Tarangavati of Padalipta ' composed in about the 1st cent. A. D., we have on record an observation of a later writer who has prepared a Pk. abridgement of the saine, to tbe effect that as Tarangavati was teeming with Desya words and other obscurities nobody understood or took interest in it. This means that numerous expressions of the language of Torangavati had become obsolete in the centuries that followed. Regarding the literary Prakrit or works composed in it in tbe 5th century A.D. and thereabout Pischel observes-- . "Sanskrit forms the chief constituent of individual Prakrit dialects, especially of Maharastri of artificial poetry, such as Gaudavaho and Ravana vaho, that are composed according to the model of Sanskrit. In them, therefore, the number of dest words is diminishing, while they are very significant in Jain Maharastri". (See Pischel SS 9). Jacobi points out the phenomenon that the number of Desi words (both Dest and Dhatvadesas) is conspicuously far greater in Ap., but comparatively less in the ordinary Prakrit. For illustrating it by concrete facts he refers to the Bhayisa yattak aba which he has edited and mentions that it contains about 120 Desrsabdas and 100 Dhatradesas. He then compares it with his other work-the Maharasts-Erzablungen absorbs more Dest words than any work of classical Pk, and possesses only 59 Dests and 44 Dhalvadesas. In the former work, he again affirms, the number of such words, which are foreign to Pk. but excluded from the Desikosa, and yet maintain some contact with the NIA dialect is not less than 60, while such words in the Maharastri-Erzablungen are only. 20. These statistical figures, there is no depial of the fact, will clearly indicate the exuberance of the Dei vocables in Ap. and its closer relationship with the dialects-which are the sources of such words.3 1. See The Linguistic Survey of India, vol. I., p. 123. 2. See quotation from Tarangalola, quoted above. 3. See Introduction to Bh. $ 11, Journal of the Asiatic Society vol. XXII, 1956, no. 1, p. 25 7 Page #61 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA "It is more significant that the elements from other strata of speeches penetrated into the vocabulary of Maharastri, which remained essentially Sanskritic in the subsequent period. Here appear first the Dhatvadesas and the Desis--the popular words for extensive use, whose preponderating majority, indeed, may be ultimately traced in the old Indian speech-but has sometimes, no easily recognisable prototype in the usual classical Sanskrit."1 50 As said by Jacobi the peculiarity of Ap. lies in its vocabulary especially the Desi element and in the idiom and expressions which are more allied to NIA languages than to Sk. Chatterji observes-". ........ The increase in number of Onomato. poetics, as Indo-Aryan advances in its history, is noticeable. The Onomatopoetics, form a very characteristic element of speech in both Dravidian and Austric, and in this matter we shall be justified in assuming a vital influence of the non Aryan substrata. "Echo words" are another contribution from Dravidian to New Indo-Aryan, and it can be well-assumed that it was coming into evidence in MIA."2 "Onomatopoetic formations on a lavish scale are a characteristic of both NIA and Dravidian. Vedic is remarkably poor in Onomatopoetics; as we come down to MIA, and NA the number and force of Onomatopoetics is on the increase."" a Discussing the lexical material in old Gujarati Bhayani says: "In vocabulary we meet a host of words of obscure or unknown origin. This Desya element is present inO .G. in a far greater degree than in Ap. Besides this the Onomatopoetic or jingle element in the vocabulary strikingly draws our attention. " " 4 Observations on Desya and rare linguistic material as found in Puspadanta: In the light of the general observations given above regarding the role of Desya element in literary Prakrit and Ap., let us consider what are the broad implications of the data presented by us in the second section of the thesis. There we find that if we exclude from our consideration those elements of Ap. vocabulary which, with more or less effort, can be derived from Sk,[i.e. 1) Items only derivable from Sk., 2) Tadbhavas with specialised or changed meaning, 3) Items partly derivable from Sk. and 4) 1. See Intro, to Bh. SS 12 2. Indo-Aryan and Hindi, p. 92. 3. See Origin and Development of Bengali Language, p. 175. See. "Language of Gujarat", Bharatiya Vidya vol. VIII, pp. 316-316, Page #62 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ ROLE OF DESYA ELEMENT 51 Items that have correspondents only in late Sk. lexicons and similar sources] and examine the Desya words strictly so-called (Onomatopoetics, Foreign loan-words of Dravidian origin and words of Persian origin and the rest -Pure Dest words) the following facts emerge: 1. In all there are 710 words or items. Even if we make allowance for some difference of opinion about considering any particular item as Desya or ctherwise and also for the greater extent of the area of extraction it will be readily admitted that our number compares fairly well the numebr given by Jacobi in Bhavisayatta kaha (10th cent.A.D.)? 2. Out of these 710 words 134 are Onomatopoetic and 45 (41+4) are early identifiable (Foreign loaps, words of Dravidian or Fersian origin). 3. 331 are found in Hemacandia (Siddhabema & Desivamamala). 4. Among the Dravidian 27 are recorded by Herracandra while 14 are not recorded by him. 5. 144 are not recorded in PSM. 6. For 45 words we have not been able to give any parallel from other Pk. and Ap. texts. 7. We find 340 words inherited in some form or other by N.I.A. while for 370 words no correspondents could be cited from N.I.A. languages like Hindi, Gujarati, Majathi or Konkani. Looking to the extent of the work and the number of Desya elements used or employed in it we find ourselves in agreement with wbat Jacobi bas observed regarding the composition of the vocabulary of Bb: "...... We can say and demonstrate by a casual glance over the glossary of words that more than pine-tepth of the vocables of literary Ap. agiee with those of the literary Pk, and the sanie are presumably borrowed from the latter." (Jacobi, Introduction to Bh. S 2) Taking this fact into consideration and contrasting it with the far larger percentage of words of nor-sapskritic origin in NIA languages, we can conclude that literary Ap. made use of Desya words to a limited degree as compared to the contemporary spoken dialects. Secondly, though the vocabulary of literary Ap. hed by the time of 9th Cent. acquired a con silerably conventional pattern and pronounced standardisation, there was always some scope left for regional influences. Only this fact would account for the extra Dravidian element in Paspadanta, who, as is well known, carried on his literary activity in a Kannada-speaking territory. 3 1. Bh, has 357 Kadavakas (22 Sandhis) while MP, has 20,000 Kadavakas (102 Sandhis). 2. Gune, Intro, to Bh. p.3. But according to Gopani, the date of Bhavisayattakaha is later than Nanapancamikaha. Premiji thought there is dearth of Kannada and Dravidian words in Puspadanta's works (Jain Sabitya aur Itihas, p. 227). But obviously his was a casual impression, not based on any close study of the point, Page #63 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 5% DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAThURANA In fine, a word on the interpretation of the Desya words is not here out of place. A glauce at some of the conflicting views on the spellings and especially on meanings of some of the Desya words in our data (e.g. dodda- dodda, gotndala-guindala, kuhani, kuhini etc., and meanings of words like ghanghala, cumbhala) will at once indicate the plight of Desya study in general, Now that numerous Ap. texts have been published, very rich M.I.A. lexical data have become available. And now it bas become considerably easier to remove obscurities and uncertainties regarding the form and meaning of many Desya expressions and to verify the information of early authorities like Hemacapdra. This is illustrated by a sumber of words in the present study wherein we have succeeded with the help of the light thrown by the context and parallels elsewhere to remove some earlier misunderstanding, conflict or ambiguity.' To any one who has worked on these lines with an Ap. text, it will be quite obvious that a compilation of a Dictionary of Desya words aud expressions that are actually attested in Pk. and Ap. works, along w.ta origia il citations, is an urgent task before the MIA. scholarship. 1. See especially discussion under the following words: uccoli, cumbhala, gbara, tuppa. coppada, ayallaa, mandira, veyadiya etc. Page #64 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ INTRODUCTORY Introductory note: For the interpretation and elucidation of the data in this section collected from Puspadanta's MP., NC., and JC., I have relied on the old g'osses in these texts, the observations of their editors, and old and modern Prakrit dictionaries and grammars. But these sources were helpiul for only a part of the material under study and there also to a limited extent. In numerous cases the meaning was to be gathered from occurrences elsewhere and in those cases where the words are treated by one or more of the above mentioned sources the meaning is either not satisfactory or suitable to our context. Again in numerous cases there is disagreement between the interpretations given by different sources. ?

This is a general rendering. The exact meaning is 'worn, put on'. Here "bhusanu nam aiddhau' means 'as if an ornament is worn'. The relevant passages are as follows: 1.

PSM. ukkhamdha-, okkhamdha- avaskanda 'siege, attack'; cf. ukkhamdha- occurring in the sense of 'attack, invasion' in PC. II and PC. III. So, 'attack' is a more likely meaning than 'riding on a horse'. ukkhamdha- is connected with Sk. avaskanda-, 'attack, assault'.) 23.

Vutthall- occurring in the sense of 'be thrown up' in PC. I. Bh. and ucchal-in JC; cf. G. uthal-vu- 'to be set upside down, get displaced violently'.] From an etymological point of view utthall-is connected with Sk. ud+sthal-, 'to leave one's original position, be displaced'; cf. H. uthal puthal 'to make upside down, loose balance and fall topsyturvy'. Jutthall-is generally associated with uprooting some solid thing or object. The same meaning is found in Gujarati; cf. G. uthal-vu 'to be set upside down, be dislodged', uthlav-vu 'to cause to tumble down' and uthal-pathal- 'a turning upside down'. The commentator connects utthalla- with druma-, 'tree'. But the arrangement and context Page #70 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ ThESYA-LIKE ITEMS require it to be taken with salila-. In that case the reading "ucchalla"- of Manuscript K is preferable, because ucshalla- means 'surging or spraying up. The confusion between -ccha- and -ttha. in the manuscripts is frequent. The relevant passage with the variant reading is- "salilucchalla-rella. padipellana-haya-duma-vigaya-rischao" which can be rendered as follows: "The parrots which had gone away from the trees, being lashed by the onrush of the flood created on account of the surging mass of waters'. 24.

Here the gloss records "avalokaya" as the meaning of ummellahl Most probably the connection between the two can be established like this-Pk. ummella, Sk. ummila-= vikasita-. Primarily it means 'to bloom' and secondarily' to open'. As applied to eyes, it means, 'to open the eyes and see'. Secondarily, because Vnsabha (whose eyes were compared to lotus-petals) was practising penance with his eyes closed, the use of ummell- in this connection can be well taken to siginify 'seeing'. However, avalokaya is but a free-rendering of ummellahi, 28.

A. form as attested in M. and G. namely, papni and papan, are cognate, that is, they go back to the same form. The two-fold treatment namely, -pp- and -tt. is familiar to us from Prakrit. Compare for example, the suffix -Itana- and - pana-, the two-fold development of the word atman (appana-, altana-) and the absolutive suffix -tta and - ppinu in karetta and karep pinu.

Compare Hi. ana, M. yene, Kon, yevnce, Kan. bar-. These are identical with the roots signifying 'to come.' In Hindi "ana" is used with a change of con. notation as, "mujhe ata nahi "- 'I don't know.' Similarly with the root yene in Marathi, yevnce in Konkani, and bar- in Kannada. Compare the semantic development of the Kan. root bar- as noted by Kittel; Kan. bar- 'to accrue (to any one etc.), to be gotten: (anything) to come into and be in the possession (of any one so as to understand and use it), to become an acquisition', The root signifying, 'to have a skill of doing a thing' in Gujarati is avad-; cf. G. avad-vu- 'to be familiar with a thing, to know (how to do a thing)'. And it is the same as attested in Apabhramsa. Now, avad- can be related to Sk. apat-. But in view of the parallels attested from other languages, it is worth considering whether this avad in its origin is nothing but an extension with -ad- of the Ap. /av-, 'to come.'

It is quite likely that dodda, is of Kannada origin. It is recorded in Pk. literature, firstly in the sense of 'big or fat' and actually the gloss gives the meaning sthula- in our context. In Prakrit literature dodda- has also been used as a derisise term for brahmanas. It is quite likely that dodda- came to have this connotation with the Jainas from its popular use. It is natural for the Jainas who believe in fasting, to refer to those brahnianas or purohits who would use their offices to fill their belly and fatten; cf. the Page #194 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ FOREIGN LOANS 183 Gujarati usage of the word tagda-.

The passage in PC. II from 34 11 7 to 34 11 9 is to be of double meaning. One meaning is complimentary and the other derogatory. In that case, dodda- in the complimentary sepse may mean something like 'carefully inspecting two cubits of road in front', as is wont with Jain monks, and in the derogatory sense it may have a reference to those Brahmapical sanyasins who indulged in tasty food and fattened themselves. In that case the word may be the same as MP. dodda-. The word dodda- occurs twice in CMC. On page 166, line 26, it occurs in a compound "dodda-jate 'in the tribe of ignorant brahmins' and on page 221, line 15 "dodda' occurs in the sense of 'an idiotic or dull-witted brahmin'. The word doda occurs in Silanka's commentary on Sutrakstanga (Agamodaya Samiti edition folio 234) and the quotation is - brahmanam dod amiti bruyat tatha vanijar kirafan iti"- a brahmin is called a "doda" and a merchant "kirata". This also shows that as 'kirata" was a term of abuse or derision for a Bania, "doda" was a similar term for a Brahmana. 760. Dombi-- 83 4 9 a woman of low caste of tumblers'.

Then the relevant passage would be - "paliddhaya uppari parighulamtu"'the tiny banners dangling above'. This word is not traceable in PSM. ; in Kannada pali- is known in the sense of 'a banner'; it is likely paliddhaya- is 'a particular kind of banner' and the first part of the compound may be a loan word from Kannada. This word appears to be a case of "translation compound" suggested by S. K.

Vacchod- occurring in this very sense in PC.I and PC.III, acchodiya, occurs in JC. at 2 7 4 and 3 10 8 and is rendered by the editor with as photita-; but here also the above meaning suits the context. Tagare corrects acchodia- with aksodita-. } The word acchedio at 93 11 10 is a misprint for acchodio. (See Add. enda et Corrigenda in NP. Volume III). At 65 19 4 the commentator has loosely rendered acchodiya- (as noted above). The meaning "removed forcibly, torn asunder' would suit the context. Similarly, at 7 10 11 the gloss loosely equates acchodiyawith kavalita. This sense finds no support from any source. Until we find some other clear passage we need not attribute this sense to acchodiya-, We can rather interpret the expression - "khayakale acchodiya" as 'dashed against the ground by khayakala'. PSM. quotes accodiya- from Gatbasaptasati, 160 and interprets it as akrsta-, that is, 'pulled'. Really speaking here too, the sense is 'rem oved forcibly' or 'torn asunder'. PSM. also equates Nacchod - in the sense of 'to knock on the ground violently, dash to the ground' and quotes from Surasundaricariu. The relevant expression is - "acchodemi silae"- 'I shall dash (bim) on the rock'. 788. Amcoli- 65 15 6 (v.1. accoli-) 'a lap'. [=utsarga- (gl.); the relevant passage is - "vaisariya ascolihi"- 'he made (her) sit on the lap'. PSM. does not record amcoli- or accoli ; cf. uccoli- in the same sense occurring in PC.I.

Cf. G. adatreda= "lying across'; cf. M. advatidva; Kon. advetidve= 'rather oblique or transverse; also cross aud crooked, intercrossing'; cf.

But in all the contexts, the meanings or shades of meanings like 'helter-skelter, oblique, across and aside, besides the point, in a disorderly manner, in all directions' fit very well. So Peterson's suggested meanings are to be discarded. The relevant passages of the Upamitibhavaprapanca Katha are as under :"vadante ardavitardakan" (p.630, 1.11)- 'speak in any random and irrelevant nianner'. "vellate ardavitardakam" (p.631, 1.16)- 'wanders across and aside this way and that way', "ardavitardakam cestante" (p.991, 1.6)- 'they behave in a disorderly matner'.

Vaidya takes them as separate words and gives kiyanmatram as the meaning of ammanu- on the strength of M. ammal-= 'a little''. Hemacandra notes abbhadavamcia- as a Desya word at H. 4 395, illu. stration 3. The commentator takes it in the sense of "anugamya"'= 'having gone after, having followed'. It appears likely that this Nabbhadavamc- may not be genetically different from w ammanuamc. PSM. analyses abbhadavascia- as made up of abbhada- and arcia- and consequently it records a word abbhada- in the sense of having gone backwards'. Desinamamala knows ammanu-ancia- in the sense of anugamana-, and we have Sk., Pk. Vannc- meaning 'to go'. So ammanuanc- can be looked upon as consisting of anuaoc, (=anugam-) and some obscure first element. 793. Ammabiraa-4 4 13, 85 75 'a lullaby'.

(2) "ammahtraena tamdijjai, niddamdhaiyau pariyamdijjail" (MP, 85 7 5)(Krsna) is being put to sleep by singing lullabies, and contented with sleep he is being rocked in the cradle'. The text of the lullaby here is as follows: "hallaru hallaru jo jo bhannai, tujjhu pasae hosai unnai/ halahara bhayara veriagoyara, tuhu suhu suyahi deva damoyara/" (MP. 85 7 6-7). 3) "Katthai dimbhau pariyardijjci an n ohircu geu jhunijjai || " (PC. JI 24 13 8) 'Somewhere children are being rocked in cradles, and notes of lullabies are being sung'. Thus, in the above contexts, ammahiraa- means 'a lullaby' or a song used to quiet a baby and put it to sleep while rocking it in a cradle'.

Vaniyayallao is rendered in the gloss with stri-kafoksa-, and hence the whole compound can be rendered ajnata- stri-kataksa-= 'one who has not known the side glance of a damsel'. But some more evidence would be necessary to take this meaning as authentic, for, elsewhere ayalla- has the sense of 'painfully uneasy (uneasiness due to love)', or 'disturbed state of mind due to love' or 'love-lorn condition of the mind (madana-vyakulatva-). PSM. renders ayallaya- with 'restlessness and quotes in support of this sense the following passages:1) "mayanasaravihuriyangi sahasa ayallayam patta" (Paumacaria of Vimalasuti 8 189) - 'with her limbs shattered with the darts of the Love-god, she all at once reached the state of love-lorpness'. 2) "viddho anamgabanehi jhatti ayallayam patto' (Surasumdaricaria 16, 110) - 'struck by the arrows of the Love-god, he attained the state of love-lornness'. 3) "kir una pia-vaassa maanaallaan attana uidehim akkharehim nivedemi" (Karputamanjari) - 'Dear friend, how can I convey my love-lorn Page #206 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ PURE DEST WORDS 195 state in proper words ?

We may also compare in this connection dalla recorded in D. 1 75 in the sense of roga-='malady.' It remains to be seen whether aalla-had also the meaning of 'malady' in general or the Desinamamala meaning is just a loose paraphrase of the specialised sense madanaroga-= 'malady of love.' Further ayalliya- occurs at 19 3. 13 in Bh. The context is the des. cription of Vajjo yara's daughter seeing Dhanamitta and falling in love with him and the consequent love-lorn condition of her. The relevant passage is - "angai mayanayalliyai- the limbs were lovelorn.' So here also ayalliya means 'love-lorpness' or disturbed state, uneasiness due to love or love sickness'. dyallaya occurs in CMC. also in this very sense. The relevant passage on p. 110 line 5 is "kumari saha--sahihi kimcivelan acchiuna gaya niyaya--bhavanar garuya mayana" yallaya-hiyaya"- "The princess remained with her friends for a while and went home with a heart painfully uneasy due to love or with a greatly disturbed state of mind due to love'. ayallaka- occurs in Merutunga's Prabandhacintamani (p.33, line 8), a Prabandha in Jain Sanskrit. The relevant passage is as follows: 'atha damaranama sandhivigrahiko malava-mandaladayatah sri bhojasya sabham varnayan mahantam ayallakam janayati." - "After that the minister for peace and war by name Damara, who had returned from Malava, while describing the court of Sri Bhoja created great longing among all.' In this Hindi translation of Prabandhacintanaai Pandit Hazariprasad Dvivedi has renderet ayallaka- with ascarya-. Really speaking ayallakais not 'wonder' or 'marvel'. Here, looking to the context the mea. ning of Zyallaka- appears to be 'longing' or 'curious longing'. In the same work ayallaka- occurs on page 73 lines 5 & 6 also; the relevant passage is - jadvayameva praphullayallakalahari-preryamanah" - being pushed by waves of full-fledged longing' The word ayallaka- is rendered with ananda- in the Hindi translation.

Elsewhere ayallaka- is 'longing exclusively with love.' Here it is irrespective of love. It is 'longing' in general. Either the meaning was extended to convey 'longing' in general or it was so previously. 801. Acakkh- 'to taste, to relish': acakkhiya- (p. p.) 1 7 6. [Gloss loosely renders it with bhaksita-.

[-vestita (gl.); the relevant passage is "hari adhattau jambuchi"- the lion was surrounded by jackals'; cf. PSM. adhatta- (D)= akranta, 'attacked'. ] sami Here adhatta- is rendered by the gloss with vestita-. PSM. quotes a passage from Samaraiccakaba wherein the word adhatta- occurs, according to PSM., in the sense of akranta-, 'attacked'. The passage is as follows:- "etthamtarammi vijayavamma-naravaina adhatto lacchinilayasurateo nama naravai" (Sam. K. 140) 'In the meanwhile, the king Vijayavarma attacked the king of laksminilaya, by name Suryatejas'. In this passage of the Sam. K., we can very well take adhattain the sense of vestita-, 'surrounded'. Similarly the word adhatta- in the MP. passage also can be taken to mean akranta-. So there is nothing in these two passages which can make us prefer between the two meanings, namely, akranta- and vestita-. Both suit the context.

Ramanujaswami takes this niuz- (and conseqpently uccola-) to mean 'the knot of the wearing garment'. But nivz, in Sk, has two meanings. cf. MW. nivi-= 1) 'a piece of cloth wrapped round the waist (especially as worn by women)', 2) 'the knot of the wearing garment'. kativastra- is quite different from 'knot of garment supposed by Ramanujaswami and PSM, as the meaning of the desi word uccoli-. The root of the error lies in misunderstanding Hemacandra's paraphrase- word niviFurther, it is interesting to note that the word under discussion occurs with the spelling ancoli-(v. 1, accoli-) at MP. 65 15 6. Here it is glossed as utsanga-='lap'. With this meaning, namely, 'lap', but with the spelling uccoli- (fem.) it occurs twice in PC. But the meaning "lap' does not hold good for MP. 22 15 10 or 56 77 where it is glossed kativastra-. At 22 15 10, the girl gathers vegetables in her fold of garment. The relevant line is - "sarala-hariyapattahu tambirayahu, mai uccoli bhariya mahurayahu". Here the uccoli- is said to have been filled with some vegetable and the girl carties it along with her. Therefore uccoli- caprot mear 'lap' here. It means 'fold of dress or garment' and the line can be rendered as - 'I filled up the fold of my garment with reddish vegetables having straight green leaves'. At 56 7 7 also uccoli can be rendered as 'folds of a garment'. The relevant passage is - "uccolihi angalau nihittu" which can be rendered as- 'placed burning charcoal in the folds of garment'. Therefore, the gloss at 56 77, namely, kativastra- and Vaidya's gloss for uccoli- at 22 15 10 are nearer the truth. The semantic development we can easily figure out. uccoli-, to start with, meant 'the fold of a garment', and later on came to mean 'the lap'. Compare a parallel development of meaning in the case of the Gujarati word 'kholo' which primarily means 'fold of garment' and secondarily 'lap'. It is not clear whether the variant amcoli- at MP. 65 15 6 is the result of the influence of the Sk, ancala-= 'front part of a garment, the border or end of a garnient'. 817. Uttemta-- 29 13 12 (v.l.ud deta-), 30 4 7, 31 2 2 'unruly'. [Vaidya renders it with unmatta-; PSM. does not record this. The meaning uddanda-, 'unruly' satisfies all the three contexts. In Kannada utti means "abuse, bad language, overbearing manner'. In Marathi udaphu- is 'an unsteady or fickle person'.

Herein jhasuppiccha- qualifies simdhu- and is rendered by the gloss as matsyolbana- i. e., 'full of, ding in fish'. Therefore, uppiccha- is equivalent to "abounding in'. jhasuppiccha- can be rendered as jhasakula-, jhasakirna-. The other leading upittha- possibly stands for uppittha- The Desinamamala records three senses for uppittha- namely, trasta-, 'afraid' or 'frightened'. kupita-, 'angry' and vidhura- 'distressed, deprived of'. Trivikrama notes uppittha- in the sense of trasta-, kruddha- (Tr. 3 1 132, 35). At MP. 5 11 1 also, the meaning 'full of, abounding in' fits well. At MP. 74 4 3 gloss renders uppiccha- with ucchrita-. PSM. on the strength of Jivajivabhigama Sutra records ahittha-, uppiccha- aula(akula,) and rosabhariya- as synonyms and at another place bhiya(bhita), duya-(druta-, pidita-), uppiccha and uttala (uddhata-) as synonyms. In that case, uppiccha- would mean akula- and uddhata-.

Here it is aptly glossed as "yuddhartham utthitah". In PC also uttharia. occurs in this very sense. 836. ,,Oral-- 'to roar': oralia-(p.p.) 28 29 1.

Ohaliya- 7 5 12, 70 8 2 'washed' 'bathed' =praksalita-, snapita- (gl.); the relevant passages are -1) "ruhirohaliyadehu" (7 5 12) - 'the body washed with blood'; 2) "vah-a pavahaohaliya-nayana" (70 8 2- 'eyes bathed with the streams of tears'.] PSM. gives 'soiled, tarnished' as the meaning of chaliya- The suppor. ting passage quoted from Surasumdaricaria 1 186 and Sanatkunaracarita is- "amsujalohaliya-gandayalo". Now in the light of the gloss of MP. we can say in the ease of the passages quoted by PSM., the meaning will be the same, namely, praksalita-. The passage can be rendered as- "the cheek-region wasbed by tears'. So the meaning 'soiled' or 'tarnished' is to be given up. 841. Kayara-- 28 2 14 (v.1. kayaruya-), Kayara-- 72 10 6 'dirt, rubbish'. fedhuli, kacavara-punjah (g1;).

Though he understands utkara- to mean 'a stack', it appears that utkara-- corresponds to ukkarada, recorded by PSM., ukkuruda- recorded by D. 1 110 and G. ukkardo, M. ukirda- and means 'a dung-heap, a head of refuse'.

Cf. kalamalaya, occurring in PC.I in the same sense as MP. cf. Hi. kalmal'fidget, flutter', M, kalmal= 'nausea preceding vomiting, qualmishness and talmal= 'restlessness through pain'.] At JC. 2 10 14 kalayalai occurs. The variant reading is kalamalai, Looking to the context the variant kalamalai appears preferable. The relevant passage is "kamuu dajjhai kalayalai (v.1. kalamalai)"- the kamuka is being burnt or consumed as if by ardent longing'. The word kalamalaka- occurs in Up.K. in the following passages ;(1) "tato tra vidyamane na sukhayate madi ya-vacanam ut padayatyaratim janayati kalamalakan" (p 421, 1. 12). Here sukhabhava-, arati- and kalamala- are clearly distinguished. (2) "tatah samudurttan- hrdayam sanjatah kalamalakah sampannam vamanar" (p. 520, 1. 6). Here vyakulatva-, 'disturbance' and corresponding 'uneasiness' fits in; or here kalamalaka- may mean 'nausea preceeding vomiting'. (3) "hrtkalamalakam ghora vamyamanah sahatyayan" (p. 528, 1. 18). Here kalamalaka- is associated with vyakulatva of heart. So, the meaning surmised by Peter Peterson for kalamalaka- occurring in Up.K. namely, 'palpitation of the heart' is to be discarded in the light of the Apabbramsa occurrences. The word kalamala- occurring in the expression "garbha-kalamala"in the Up.K. appears to be a different word in the sense of 'miserable state of foetus'. 861 Kasara, 7 20 4,8 2 18, 28 28 7, 28 31 9, 32 20 14, 42 7 10 'a bull of low breed who shuns work'. SA [The gloss loosely renders kasara, with balivarda-, 'bull' at 7 20 4 add vatsatara-, 'mule' at 8 2 18. At 32 20 14 the commentator has rendered kasara- with pandura-, But in the light of the occurrences noted below, we should take it to mean a 'mule' or 'bad bullock'. cf. kasara-- adhama-balivarda, 'a bull of the lowest quality' (D. 2 4). It also occurs in the sense of gali-vrsabha-at H. 4 421, illustration 1). balivarda-, vatsatara-, goyuva- and 'mischievous bull' rendered by Vaidya are loose-renderings of kasara. (See MP.

See gomdaliya-.] At MP. 11 16 9 the commentator has given sangrama- as the alternative meaning. But melapaka- is the basic sense. Because the context is of fighting, the commentator has interpreted gomdala- as sangrama-. It is really speaking a gathering for the purpose of fighting'. Similarly, at 14 7 2, 17 2 13, 28 27 13, 52 14 1, 59 12 15 and 78 29 1 gomdala- refers to 'a battle gathering' or 'a noisy gathering'. At 77 8 10 gomdala- stauds for 'clamour and confusion'; the relevant passage at 77 8 10 is as follows: "jayayam ca padisuhadagomdalam"- "there was a clamour and confusion created among the warriors of the enemy party'. 221 gommdala- occurs in NC. at 4 10 7 where the editor renders it with akranda-, and also connects it with gud-, 'to play'. But 'a battle gathering or a noisy gathering' would suit the context. In PC. II also gomdala- occurs in several places in the sense of 'hubub and confusion' and confused mass'. The relevent passage at 40 7 3 is "maha-gaya-gomdale" - 'a confused mass of chariots and elephants' and at 40 17 3 - "maha-gomdaluddama" - 'great and intense hubub and confusion'. - PSM. records gumdala- in the sense of ananda dhvani and in support of this quotes from. Surasundaricaria. The relevant passage is - "matta-varakamini-samghakaya-gumdalani" - 'where the group of intoxicated damsels were making hilarious noise'. PSM. also interprets the word in the sense of harsa-bhara-ananda-sandoha- and in support quotes the following line from Supasanahacaria- "anamda-gumdalam lalai lilavaihi parikalio" - 'Surrounded by sportive ladies he rocks in joyous clamour'. Thirdly, PSM. notes gumdala- in the sense of anandamagna- and quotes in support the following line from Supasanahacaria "tam taha datthum anamdagumdalam." But here we can just as well take anamdagumdalam as a Bahuvrihi compound and render the passage having seen him so full of joyous and merry confusion'. In that case we are not required to take gumdala- as an Adjective. The word gumdala- occurs in Hemacandra's Chando'nusasana at 7 45 1. Here the commentator has rendered it with vardhalam or Page #233 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 222 DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA mardala-dhvani. Tumult, hubub and confusion suits the context. The relevant passage is - "jalahara kari gumdalu nittha na janasi virahiaham" - 'O cloud! You are causing tumult, and you don't realise the pangs of the lovers in separation'. Here the name of the metre is also gomdalam. Thus, as in one direction the word is extended to mean 'battlegathering', in another direction it is extended to mean dhvani-, sabda-, kolahala-. This suggests that the basic meaning is a noisy crowd'.

Ghamghala-- 32 7 2, 65 21 11, 74 10 6, 84 6 4 'adversity,' 'turmoil,' 'full of obstacles,' 'trouble', Page #235 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 224 DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA [=apad-, vighnapraya-(gl.); cf. ghamghala jhakata-, kalaha-, 'a quarrel' (H. 4 422). ghamghala- occurring at 4 1 10 in NC. is paraphrased by vighnakara- and equated with mathaka- or vilodaka- by the editor. But apad- suits the context ghamghala- occurs in PC. II in the sense of 'desert, parched land' according to the editor.] Here at MP. 32 7 2 and also at NC. 4 1 10 the word ghamghalais used in the sense of apad-. On the other hand, Hemacandra in his Apabhramsa grammar 4 422 specifically gives the meaning "jhakata-" i.e. 'quarrel' (cf. G. jhagdo and Hi., M. jhagdda= 'quarrel') and quotes a stanza 4 422 illustration 2) to support the meaning. But it appears that even in the citation given by Hemacandra, the meaning "apad" suits well and we need not take ghamghala- to mean 'quarrel'. The stanza cited and the meaning of that stanza given by Vaidya is as follows: "jiva supurisa tiva ghamghalai, jiva nai tiva valanai | jiva domngara tiva kottarai, hia visurai kai ||" "Just as there are many good men, so there are many struggles; there are rivers and there are turnings; there are hills and there are hollows; O heart why are you depressed ?" (See Vaidya's edition of Sidha-Hema. notes, pp. 701-702). But to us the stanza appears to yield better meaning if it is rendered in the following manner : 'As there are good men, so there are adversities attendant upon them; as there are rivers, so there are turnings (along with them); as there are hills, so there are hollows associated with them. O heart, why are you deppressed ?' The purport is as rivers and turnings, hills and hollows are inseparably connected, so also, good men are ever subject to adversities. If this is acceptable, then some new evidence would be required to justify the meaning 'quarrel' given to ghamghala- by Hemacandra. Our rendering gives a proper connection of meaning between sajjanaand ghamghala- as against the one we get from interpereting ghamghala- as kalaha-. At MP. 74 40 6 and 84 6 4 ghamghala- means the impending vighnaor trouble from the opposite party (pratibhata-). The relevant passages are as follows: 1) "dullamghai padibalaghamghalai" (74 13 6) 'It is difficult to oppose the impending troubles from the opposite army'. 2) "paribhadaghamghalu bhuyabalu kalamti" (84 6 4) "They get the - Page #236 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ PURE DESI WORDS measure of the impending trouble and the strength of arms of the opponent'. At MP. 62 21 11 also ghamghala- stands for troubles and obstacles'. ghamghala- occurs at 2 31 5 in JC. The editor has rendered it with kalaha- following H. 4 422. But 'trouble' seems to suit the context which is the description of a dog. The relevant passage is - "bahusuarakula-ghamghala-vayanu" 'possessing a mouth which was a source of trouble for a herd of swine'. As noted above ghamghala- appears to have yet another meaning at PC, II 45 7 8. The relevant passage is as follows: "jalavimmdu jema ghamghale padamtu jam disai tam sahasu mahamtu"// According to the editor, some meaning like 'desert' or 'parched land' is suitable to the context. 225 The meaning moha- recorded by PSM. is not sutable for any of the above quoted passages. ghamghala- also occurs in Hemacandra's Chando' nusasana at 4 52 1. The commentator interprets the expression "manavisaghamghala" as 'manam vihvalam visrnkhalam va'. But it is not clear on what grounds he has taken visa-ghamghala- as equivalent to vihvala- or visrnkhala-. The commentator's rendering would rather presuppose a reading vihalamghala- or visamthula- which does mean vihvala-. But even then the meaning of the line is not quite satisfactory. To describe mana- as visrnkhala- or vihvala- is not quite satisfactory- 'Agitation or trouble' can fit in. So "mana-visaghamghala" can be rendered as 'mana in the form of vicious trouble or agitation'. Again ghamghala- occurs in the same text at 5 31 1. The expression is "kayaghamghala-" and the same commentator has taken ghamghalaas duhkha-. Here also 'agitation or disturbance' fits in. So the passage, "navaghana-mamdalena thakka pahia kayaghamghalena" can be rendered as - 'the wayfarers were halted by the trouble-shooting new clouds'. 919.

SAt 42 1 3 ghalliya, is rendered with tyakta-, 'abandoned'; Nghall primarily means 'to throw and hence tyakta-= 'thrown away'. One development of meaning is 'placing'. If a thing is placed violently it is 'throwing away'. So 'to abandon' or 'to throw away' is a second development of meaning of N ghall-; cf. N ghall-= ksip-, 'to throw' (H. 4 334). Cf. N ghall- occurring in the same sense in JC. , NC. , KC., PC.I, PC.III, Bh.; cf.

This word is not noted by PSM, in this sense; cf. Pujnjabi gall-= 'to talk of' and Sindhi and Kacchi gal= 'talk'. ] 922. Ghara-- 7 6 4, 28 27 1, 54 15 3 'a kite'. [At D.2 107 ghari-is equated with sakunikakhyah paksi-, Ramanuja. swami renders this with 'a hen-sparrow'. But the word sakunt in Sk. has two meaning, 1) a kite, 2) a hen-sparrow; cf. MW. sakunt='a large bird, grdhra-=vulture or cilla-=kite''; and sakuni (L)='a hensparrow'. In most of its occurrences ghara-is used in the context of war and hence can be equated with 'a valuture or kite' which feeds on carrion'. This is confirmed by the gloss on the word ghara- occurring in NC. at 4 10 7 namely, grdhra-. Hence we can render sakunika (and consequently ghari-) with 'a vulture' or 'a kite'; cf. "cilla ghart sauni" (Pai. 286); cf. ghara-occurring in this very sense in JC. (2 27 12) & KC.; cf.M.ghar, Kon. ghari='a kite'.) In the light of the meanings in M. and Kon, and the rendering sauni= (Jain Sk. sakunika-, G. samadi-, samali-, 'kite') and cilla- (Hi. cil-, 'kite'), it appears that mostly ghara-meant 'a kite'. In that case the meaning ghrdhra-or 'vulture' given by the gloss at NC. 4 10 7 and MW. (on the strength of late Laxicons) requires some positive evidence to support it.

The reltvant passages in MP. are - 1) suhad asta. vali-visahara-cumbhalu (54 11 7)- 'the coil of snake in the form of a row of entrails of warriors'.

It is not known whether the word was current in the sense of sekhara, and then developed the two-fold meanings namely 1) 'coiled shape and 2) 'a supporting ring on the head.'

The revelant passage at 73 21 8 is- "ma salilu vahai phanicumbhalzi"'Don't carry water on the supporting ring in the shape of a coiled serpent'. Here the word occurs in Feminine gender. Because the supporting ring is in a coiled shape and resembles a coiled serpent, it is compared with phani- ; cf. cornbhala- at MP. 50 5 9 where it is compounded with sappa-, D. 3 16 records cumbhala-, cuppala- in the sense of sckhara-, 'a crest, a garland for the head'.

It is likely that it is a guess on the part of the commentator. There is no authority for these meanings. Till one comes across actual literary evidence we cannot confirm or deny whether the word was current in the sense of sekhara-as recorded by Hem. and Trivikrama.

Again at the same place Hemacandra gives the word "bhorudaa-" in the sense of bharundaya . and in the commentary he says, "bhorudo bharuida paksi". This means that Hemacandra accepts "bherunda" and "bharurda-"as Sk. words in the sense of designation of a particular type of bird. Besides this, bherunda as a desya word is recorded by him to be current in the sense of citraka-. In the manuscripts there is a variation betweem bherund- and bheramda-, also between bharumdaand bharaida-.. In NC. the word bherunda- occurs at 4 10 13 and at 7 7 5. Tbe editor has rendered it with citraka-. But in the context 'bharumdapaksi' fits. So it appears that the author must have used the word bherunda- in MP. as well as in NC. in the same sense.

It has been cited by Sva. yambhu in his Svayambhucchandas to illustrate the non-position making character of r in Prakrit in conjuncts with "q"-and there the full quotation is given under the name of a poet Vammautta. The actual form in Svayambhu is "vodraha-". See Svayambhu. chandas edited by Velankar, H.D., 1 2 3'. Hemacandra's citation of vodraha- etc. appears to have been borrowed from Svayambhucchandas.
