________________ 165 विद्युत् Even a superficial examination of the Deśīs recorded by Hemacandra makes obvious some of its striking characteristics. A majority of these words are such that they are not known so far from any other source. The Pāiasaddamahannavo (and other modern Prakrit dictionaries) do not cite for them any other authority. It is however a fact that a considerable amount of Prakrit and Apabhramša literature has remained as yet unpublished. Our experience so far shows that newly published Prakrit works are found to contain Deśya words which had remained so far unattested from the published literature. A considerable number of words of the Dešināmamālā are such that though technically considered Deśya by Hemacandra's criteria, are quite good Tadbhavas-and Hemcandra himself is fully aware of this alternative opinion. The following are a few instances out of hundreds : अइहारा अचिराभा अइरजुवा अचिरयुवति: नववधूः अगुज्झहरो अ-गुह्यधर: रहस्यभेदी अग्गक्ख धो अग्रस्कन्धः रणमुखम् अग्गवेओ अग्रवेगः नदीपूरः अग्गि । आग्निक: इन्द्रगो कीटः अंकुसइअ अंकुशित अंकुशाकारम् अजुअलवण्णो अयुगलपर्ण: अम्लिकावृक्षः अज्जो अर्य: जिनः अणेकज्ञा अनेक + ध्यः चन्चल: अत्थग्ध अस्ताघम् अगाधम् अन्धान्धुः कूपः अप्पज्ञो आत्म + ध्यः आत्मवशः अरिहइ अहति नूनम् अवगो अपाङ्गः कटाक्षः अंधू Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
