Sanskrit Search Function

[Mārcis Gasūns]

Namaste,

 Is search for Sanskrit words different as search for English? Different patterns?

 http://web.archive.org/web/20080110105916/http://www.dcs.shef.ac.uk/~sam/stringmetrics.html#ukkonen would it work for Sanskrit words as well? Or some adjustment would be needed? Found on http://anastasiosyal.com/POST/2009/01/11/18.ASPX? The only Sanskrit website that has at least some of the features is http://lexica.indica-et-buddhica.org/dict/lexica

What I meant is not where to look for Sanskrit words.

I meant "how" to look. For example http://kjc-fs-cluster.kjc.uni-heidelberg.de/dcs/index.php?contents=help_query 

Query with wildcards

For a more flexible search, you may use the following wildcards or placeholders:

Wildcard	Meaning	Examples
*	No letter, one letter or more than one letter	r*j: rañj, rāj, ruj and ratnarāj *vi*rama: amitavikrama, vikrama, savibhrama
?	Exactly one letter	r?j: rāj, ruj ?vi?rama: avikrama

It's interesting, I know it years ago, but no control or editorial approval.

 

http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/monier/

This is the main and the only source.

 

http://dsal.uchicago.edu/dictionaries/apte/

The other only big source.

 

http://sanskritdocuments.org/dict/

 I know it. Compared to Koeln and Chicago websites - not that valuable.
