The Student's English-Sanskrit Dictionary

In preparing this edition extreme care has been taken to make a thorough revision of the book the main features of which are:-

(a) Over a thousand new words frequently occurring in the English literature but now given in the previous editions have now been added with their appropriate Sanskrit equivalents.

(b) In some cases Sanskrit equivalents of words in senses other than those given in the earlier editions have been supplied.

(c) Words similar in form but different in sense and also their derivatives were mixed up in the earlier editions to save space. But as this was found to interfere greatly with clearness and facility of reference they have now been separately given in some cases to remedy the inconvenience.

(d) The feminine forms of adjectives ending in T, N and S which are regularly formed by the simple addition of E were given in the previous editions in the case of the first three letters and then discontinued. They have now been deleted throughout.

In Marketing these changes, the original plan of the learned author has been strictly followed.

These additions and alterations will be found to have considerably added to the usefulness of the book and it is hoped that in its present form. It will be more helpful to the student world.
