Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)

Source: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammar

Iṅgya (इङ्ग्य).—A separable word as opposed to अनिङ्ग्य (aniṅgya); part of a compound word which is separated or may be separated from the remaining part when the word is split up into its constituent parts. Generally the word is applied to the first part of a compound word when it is split up in the recital of the padapāṭha. The 'iṅgya' word is shown by a pause or avagraha after it which is shown in writing by the sign (ऽ): cf. इङ्गयेत विभागेन चाल्यते इति इङ्गयम् । इङ्गयमिति विभागपदस्य संशा (iṅgayeta vibhāgena cālyate iti iṅgayam | iṅgayamiti vibhāgapadasya saṃśā) com. on Tait. Prāt. 1.48. सावग्रहं पदमिङ्गयम् (sāvagrahaṃ padamiṅgayam) Com.on T.Pr. I.48.

context information

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
