M. A. MEHENDALE
Deccan College, Poona
ABSTRACT: Sample entries that could appear in a historical dictionary of Sanskrit have been presented for the root dagh- and 6 related forms and for the taddhita suffix -daghna and 31 derivatives ending in that suffix.
I dagh 1.c dagh verb (for IE etymology, Walde-Pokorny 791 ] qeyfa (4), saila (5), get (1, 6?). (FET, EH, E417, 28. ) to go (na ) Nigha. 2. 14; to flow (Faf9.4) Nir. 1. 9; to kill, to protect (
) Dhātu. 5. 27. Used only with adverbs or prefixes, the basic meaning apparently being : to reach a certain level, to flow at a certain level (see 37TCET) which is modified by the adverbs अधः, पश्चा or पश्चात्, and परः or the prefixes अति, आ, प्र and प्रति.
(a) with 374' to make something reach below normal level'
t u rer.... HIST T'he should not raise the fire) too high...he should not make it reach low 'Katha. 8. 12; Katha 7. 7.
(b) with पश्चा or पश्चात् 'to remain behind ' पश्चा स दघ्या यो अघस्य धाता 'may he, who commits sin, remain behind' RV 1. 123. 5; AT 9475 Le Tout fagio RV 7. 56. 21.
(c) with m' to go beyond ' A1 TT-AT TE' do not lag behind, do not go beyond' (addressed to Bhaga) Paippa. 19. 37. 8( see aface).
2. CE atidagh ( ATH) 'to reach beyond, to pass over' F1 azt hud Tut' a' be of help to the praisers, may not good luck reach beyond us' RV 2. 11. 21. This line has been paraphrased by Yaska (Nir, 1. 7) as Althafardetaisaiafagia ar: 'do not give beyond us, abandoning us do not give (to others ). Apparently he derives from 6 6 to which he ascribes the meaning to give'l. Ara at Higitt -AT OR amiga alla! 17 may not a wolf (or) a she-wolf attack you, do not avoid ( us ) and do not go beyond (us) 'RV 1. 183. 4.
1. Sãyana also assigns the meaning 'to give
and also in 1.183.4.
