ETYMOLOGICAL INDEX : INDO-ARYAN

This Index is a list of loanwords derived from Indo-Aryan (IA) in the Corpus.

Headwords (in bold italics in col.1) are arranged in the Tamil alphabetical order (with dh and s at the end). Minimal segments of Personal names (N.) and Place names (P.) which appear to be of IA origin are also included. Noun stems are given without the paragogic suffixes or case-endings found in the original inscriptions. Emendations or corrections (as in the Commentary) are in italics within brackets next to the headwords. Grammatical parts of speech of the words are indicated next (within brackets). See Abbreviations.

Reference Numbers (as in the Commentary, ETE 2) of words and segments are given in col. 2.

IA parallels are cited from Inscriptional Prakrit (Inscrl. Pkt.) including Sinhala- Prakrit (Sinh. Pkt.), Canonical Prakrits, viz., Pāli and Ardhāmaghadhī (AMg.), and from Sanskrit (Skt.) in cols. 3 to 6 respectively. References to CDIAL numbers are given in the last column (within brackets).

Literary and inscriptional citations and further discussions on the etymology of the loanwords will be found in the Commentary, ETE 2 on the respective entries indicated by the Reference Numbers. See Etymological Index: Doubtful Items for etyma whose derivation from Dr. or IA is in doubt. See also section 3.3, ETE 2.
