The Paniniyavyakaranodaharanakosa is, as its French and English titles indicate (La Grammaire Panineenne par see exemples; Paninian Grammar through its Exapmples) an instrument for grasping in a concrete way both the functioning and the field of application of the complex grammatical system of the Astadhyayi of Panini along with the varttika-s of Katyayana. To this end, the approximately 40,000 examples provided by the Mahabhasya, the Kasikavrtti, the Bhasavrtti and the Siddhantakaumudi, have been collected and made the subject of articles whose content corresponds to this dual objective. This work is, thus, in the form of a dictionary whose entries are those examples which are accessed either directly or through Astadhyayi’s sutra-s or by Indian grammatical terminology. In presenting this entire work, it seemed most appropriate to follow the presentation of Paninian grammar made by the Siddhantakaumudi. Consequently, each of the volumes of the dictionary, from the second on, corresponds to a prakarana of that commentary.
