Pali: A Grammar of the Language of the Theravada Tipitaka. With a Concordance to Pischel's Grammatik der Prakrit-Sprachen

Rate this book
The grammar presents a full decription of Pali, the language used in the Theravada Buddhist canon, which is still alive in Ceylon and South-East Asia. The development of its phonological and morphological systems is traced in detail from Old Indic. Comprehensive references to comparable features and phenomena from other Middle Indic languages mean that this grammar can also be used to study the literature of Jainism.
