In Hinduism
Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammarٳܰṃh (दुर्गसिं�).—The famous commentator of the Katantra sutras, whose Vrtti on the sutras is the most popular one. It is called , कातन्त्रसूत्रवृत्त� (ٲԳٰūٰṛtپ) or कातन्तवृत्ति (ٲԳٲṛtپ) or दौर्गसिंहीवृत्ति (岹ܰṃhīṛtپ), also. A work on Paribhasas named परिभाष�-वृति (貹ṣ�-ṛt), in which Paribhasas are explained and established as based on the Katantra Vyakarana sutras, is attributed to Durgasimha. It is doubtful whether this commentator Durgasimha is the same as Durgacarya, the famous commentator of Yaska's Nirukta. There is a legend that Durgasimha was the brother of Vikramaditya, the founder of the Vikrama Era. Besides the gloss on the Katantra sutras, some grammar works such as a gloss on the unadi sutras, a gloss (वृत्ति (ṛtپ)) on Kalapa-Vyakarana Sutras, a commentary on Karakas named षट्क�-रकरत्न (ṣaṭk-첹ٲԲ), Namalinganusasana and Paribhasavrtti are ascribed to Durgasimha. Some scholars believe that the term अमरसिं� (ṃh) was only a title given to Durgasimha for his profound scholarship, and it was Durgasimha who was the author of the well-known work Amarakosa.

Vyakarana (व्याकर�, vyākaraṇa) refers to Sanskrit grammar and represents one of the six additional sciences (vedanga) to be studied along with the Vedas. Vyakarana concerns itself with the rules of Sanskrit grammar and linguistic analysis in order to establish the correct context of words and sentences.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम� (ṃsṛt), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
