Course Learning Objectives

In this course the students will be able to:

  • Identify vyañjana and visarga sandhis in ślokas.
  • Demonstrate the use of vyañjana and visarga sandhis rules to split sandhis.
  • Combine alphabets to create proper sandhis.
  • Explain the process of sandhis as per Pāṇini sūtras.

Featured Testimonial

Course Content

This course will primarily focus on vyañjana-sandhis, which involve the merging of two consonants that come into immediate contact with each other, as well as Visarga sandhis, which involve a change in the visarga. Students will explore the Pāṇini sūtras (aphorisms) to understand how these consonants can be combined or separated. By the end of this quarter, students will have a comprehensive understanding of various categories of vyañjana sandhis, including Ścutva sandhiḥ, Ṣṭutva sandhiḥ, Jaśtva sandhiḥ, Cartva sandhiḥ, Anunāsika sandhiḥ, Anusvāra sandhiḥ, Parasavarṇa sandhiḥ, and Chatva sandhiḥ. They will also be able to identify these sandhis in ślokas and other texts. These exercises will enhance their fluency in reciting ślokas and provide a better understanding of word structure. Additionally, this knowledge will aid in the analysis of Saṃskṛtam texts.

 

Class Structure

Students will have a dedicated 1.5 hours of contact time with the faculty each week. The class is carefully structured to facilitate effective learning in an online face-to-face format. The curriculum is designed to build upon the knowledge gained in previous classes. Regular homework assignments will provide valuable opportunities to practice the concepts covered in class. Successful completion of the course requires the submission of graded homework and the final Quarter End Exam (QEE)
