Dhātu · verb roots

The verbal roots of Sanskrit as the Dhātupāṭha lists them — gaṇa, pada and meaning. Choose a class code such as 1P to see the root conjugated.

Root णम्

  1. णम्ṇam

    णम्अ प्रह्वत्वे शब्दे च (प्रह्वत्वं नमस्कारो नम्रता च)

    1P, , ak (घट्-आदि वा (when it doesn't come after an upendra))

    to bend, bow down; to sound (प्रह्वत्व means नमस्कार "offering obeisances" and नम्रता "being submissive")

    N.B. णम्अ is a ghaṭ-ādi by the phrase अम्-अन्ताश् च, but gaṇa-sūtra limits that by saying that it is only optionally ghaṭ-ādi when it desn't come after an upendra । but सिद्धान्त-कौमुदी confirms that it is always ghaṭ-ādi when it does come after an upendra ।
