Sir M. Monier-Williams’ Sanskrit-English Dictionary is beyond any doubt the most consulted dictionary in the world of Sanskrit scholarship. It is structured along etymological lines, the words being arranged under their roots, which helps the student to relate words to their original bases giving thereby a deeper insight into the structure of the language. The abundant allusions to cognate Indo-European languages and the textual references are an invaluable help in tracing the development of words’ meanings in the long history of Sanskrit literature. The present work contains more than 180,000 words.
