BY AMARA SINGH
With an English interpretation and Annotation
By H. T. Colebrooks
The celebrated Umura Kosha or Vocabulary of Sanskrit by Umura “Singha", is by the unanimous suffrage of the learned, the best guide to the acceptations of nouns in Sanskrit. The work of Panini on etymology is rivaled by other grammars. Some of which have even obtained the preference in the opinion of the learned of particular provinces but Umura’s vocabulary has prevailed wherever the Sanskrit language is cultivated; and th e numerous other vocabularies, which remain, are consulted only where Umura’s either silent or defective. It has employed the industry of innumele commentators, while none of the others (with the single exceptions of Hemachandra’s) have been interpreted even by one annotator. Such decided preference of the Umura Kosha and the consequent frequency of quotations from it, determined the selections of this as the basis of an alphabetical dictionary and suggested the expediency of also publishing the original text with an English interpretation.
