Nomen proprium eines Königs der Kunti und Adoptivvaters der Kuntī [Mahābhārata 1, 4383. 2, 1110. 3, 17001. fgg.] [Bhagavadgītā 1, 5.] [Harivaṃśa 1929.] [Kathāsaritsāgara 16, 36.] [Viṣṇupurāṇa 437.] kuntībhoja [Mahābhārata 3, 17067.] Diese letzte, vereinzelt dastehende Form ist wohl kaum richtig und berechtigt uns also nicht das Wort durch Ernährer der Kuntī zu deuten. In kuntibhoja fassen wir das letzte Wort gleichfalls als Nomen proprium auf: Gebieter der Kunti und Bhoja.

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.
