Barsa (बर्स):—m. Zipfel, dünnes Ende [Aitareyabrāhmaṇa 1, 11.] yajñasyaiva tadbarsau nahyati sthemne [13. 16.] [Taittirīyasaṃhitā 2, 5, 7, 1.] [Kāṭhaka-Recension 23, 9.] Dafür bahisa (viell. Fehler für barisa . der Schol. erklärt übrigens: bahiḥ prāntadvaye) [Śāṅkhāyana’s Brāhmaṇa 9, 4.] varsa n. zu [Pāṇini’s acht Bücher 8, 3, 59.] Dass hier die Lesart varsam allein richtig und dass nicht varṣam zu lesen sei, wie in [MĀN. 173,b.] behauptet wird, liegt klar auf der Hand. saragādīnāmiti vaktavyam kann unmöglich ein Vārttika [KĀTYĀYANA'S] sein, oder man müsste annehmen, dass [Kātyāyana] sich selbst verbesserte. Es sind wahrscheinlich noch [PATAÑJALI'S] Worte: statt sarakaḥ, wie [Kātyāyana] gesagt hatte, will er saragādīnām gesetzt haben.

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.
