Indian Cambridge student cracks 2,500-year-old riddle!!!
Dr Rishiraj Popat, a PhD student at Cambridge University, has claimed that he has solved a mystery of the complex grammar of Ashtadhyayi. Rishiraj Popat was continuously working on this formula for the last 9 months, now this rule has been settled. Panini was a great scholar of the ancient sanskrit language. He was continuously working on a formula, but this knot was not being solved. He has done this amazingly while studying at Cambridge University.
Ashtadhyayi gives a complex explanation of the structure of Sanskrit. sanskrit is considered the sacred language of Sanatan dharma in india but it is not a public language. Very few people read and understand Sanskrit. Panini's sanskrit grammar is called Ashtadhyayi.Ashtadhyayi formulates word algorithms that can convert root words and suffixes into correct grammar. When two or more rules of Panini are applied simultaneously, then a situation of the dispute arises. people get entangled in the same knot.Scholars lived in confusion about Panini's formulaPanini had coined a formula for these rules which different scholars were defining in their own way. He clarified in a sutra that when there is a discrepancy between the rules, then the later rule in grammar should be considered effective. The correct interpretation of this rule was not easy.What did Rishiraj Popat find in his theory?Rishiraj has defined these sutras differently. He has said that Panini's rules apply according to the left and right sides of the word. Panini used to say that the rule applied from the right side should be considered authentic. When he worked on this formula of Panini, he came to know that Panini's rule fits perfectly on 'Language Machine' and there is no exception in it.Experts are calling Rishiraj's findings 'revolutionary'. With this discovery, for the first time, Panini's sanskrit grammar can also be solved through computers. The linear and precise nature of the 4000 rules of the Ashtadhyayi also makes it well suited for natural language processing systems.What is Panini's Ashtadhyayi?The Ashtadhyayi is an eight-chapter treatise on the sound, semantics and structure of classical Sanskrit. It is written by grammarian and scholar Dakshiputra Panini. It formulates and rules the language. How sanskrit will be spoken, and how words will be pronounced, all have been mentioned in this book.
