I too do not believe, that any of the Sanskrit verbs noted by the machine made translations are based on the Sanskrit English Dictionaries, and do not confirm with the definition of the verb "to celebrate" as given in the English Dictionaries,

We always celebrate our wedding anniversary by going out to dinner.
If this plan works, we'll celebrate in style (= in a special way).-- 

The verbs by themselves ष्टु स्तुतौ स्वादिः, ष्टुञ् स्तुतौ' २. ३८ प्र + ऋच् = स्तुतौ, are clearly used to express to praise, as in स्तोत्रम्, स्तुतिः,स्तवनम् etc. give explicit meaning.

too have the same effect, in practice., प्रथयति, प्रथा, ख्यातिः = popularity, praise, fame. to be extolled, praised. etc. would be most possible meanings for these. "ख्या प्रकथने" to speak. विख्यातः = praised by many people because of his deeds.

This gives some hint of being celebrated persons and hence the equation with the english verb to celebrate. I don't think we have any simple verb exactly meaning the same as the english verb = to celebrate.:

1. Behave as expected during holidays or rites;

2. Have a celebration; 

3. Assign great social importance to

Just I copied what I found on the net with the dictionaries. One may invent some verbs, but I am not sure. For celebration or festivity, in general, there is a commonly used word उत्सव derived from the verb : सू | तु० सेट् प० | षू प्रेरणे ६. १४४ ||

but the verbal forms are not known. सुवति will be normal one, but not used in the sense of celebrate much, as its noun form is used.

Respected Prof Bhat Sir,
Thank you very much. Refering to your line:
"One may invent some verbs, but I am not sure. For celebration or" etc
Can we then innovate (from 'mud modate'), a new verb 'sam+mud sammodate' to convey 'to enjoy or rejoice together'? Will it convey 'to celebrate'? Will it amount to an affront to the Sanskrit language?
Daasye, modiShye etc convey individual rejoicing and so I thought 'sammodiShye' could convey 'rejoicing together which would seem to be the essence of 'to celebrate'.

Dear Shreyas Mahodaya

This is a good suggestion – the word sthouthi seems to be associated with a religious feeling in my mind, and the root mud is secular and can apply to anything.

Thanks for more synonyms which have the translation as celebrate. Most of them are contextual meanings, and outside the context, it is doubtful whether they would convey the same meaning as the cultural content of the verb to celebrate in the classical literature.

It is a fact that it is always difficult to transmit the cultural contents of one language through another language with synonymous words. Moreover, there are no synonyms exactly in any language, only with difference ignored, are used in different contexts to convey the similar meaning. How can we expect it to be between the two verbs of two languages to convey the cultural content with the languages of the other language alien to it? 

It is only the difference that English is day to day language now reflects contemporary cultural content and Sanskrit reflects the cultural content of by gone days and now only the cultural contents remain, with the only those words expressing them.

"Most of them are contextual meanings, and outside the context, it is doubtful whether they would convey the same meaning as the cultural content of the verb to celebrate in the classical literature."  - Well said.

namassarvebhyaH |

'context' is the name of the game.  When asking for a translation, it is better if the requester specifies a context.  Celebration of a Grand Slam victory is different from celebrating Diwali.  Which is again different from the celebration of the life and works of some noble soul.  In English itself, though the word is the same, a different 'sense' is conveyed based on what is being celebrated.  And then, to find a single equivalent in another language (Sanskrit, in this case), even without analyzing what the scope of the meaning of the word in the original language is, will not do justice to the effort.

Respectfully,

Vidya

In case of ambiguities of the usage, there are some more means to arrive at the precise meaning of the specific words:

शब्दार्थाः प्रविभज्यन्ते न रूपाद् एव केवलात् // वाप २.३१४ //

[Shreyas P. Munshi]

Thanks Vimala-ji. I am quite relieved!

You see, I am trying to learn spoken Sanskrit in the Chitrapur Mutt stream. I have cleared the two initial courses: Upaasanaa and Aaraadhanaa; Saadhanaa and DhaaraNaa would be the 3rd and the fourth (final) level.

About 'to celebrate',I asked my teachers and some university level Sanskrit teachers also and they all said that exact translation of 'to celebrate' is not available. And that is why I placed the query to the fraternity. And after reading Prof Bhat's line, attempted to innovate the secular-sounding verb 'sam+mud samodate", all the time remaining scared (I am still scared!)that it might amount to an affront on the Sanskrit language.

I cant agree more with the scholars who have said that the verb to be used for 'to celebrate' would depend on the context; but today we have come to use 'to celebrate' for almost all situations (and in almost all cases, the method of celebrating also remains the same;"cheers", drink, dance, laugh, make noise and the like),the acquired connotation boiling down to "let's get together and enjoy", whether it is a Grand Slam Victory as Vidya-ji has said, or others like: passed the exam, bought a new house, bought my first car, got engaged, got married, got blessed with a child, got elected, got promoted, birth or marraige anniversary, 400 yrs of creation of Hyderabad etc....let's celebrate!

The cultural context also seems to have got replaced. I am 74, but I never said 'happy birthday' to my late mother or father! And never never 'happy marriage anniversary'to them! And never said "let's celebrate"! Whether it was their birthday or mine, it was I who would bow down to them (and all my elders!)for their blessings. Things have now surely changed.My children and nephews and nieces wish us happy birthday, happy marriage anniversary, and offer "to celebrate"! So next time I would say (not to show off my newly learnt Sanskrit but to inspire them to learn spoken Sanskrit!):
"avaShyam sammodiShyamahe"!

Thank you for expressing your intention and opinion. 

Scholastic discussion and opinion is one thing, which needs testimony to say any thing. Free lance discussion need not any such restriction or standard. That is why you could not get any answer from the Sanskrit Teachers and got the same answer from me. I feel sympathy right with you. 

Instead of reading the already available rich and wide diverse literature and learning to enjoy them. I don't understand the obligation to put new ideas and new cultural contents into the deep rooted usages of the words. If it is for day to day use, well, no restriction of any such scripture is needed, and one can use as one may wish to do. But if ask for sanction, it will only pollute the real usage and at a time it will be forgotten at all. This is my personal opinion.

While the regional languages easily adopt the newly borrowed words from any other language, including Sanskrit, which is native, Sanskrit is not so flexible yet. I don't say it is out of usage as any language with a firm structure, can be used as spoken language. And the level of spoken language is also restricted to the utilitarian base of the language one learns and cannot always be regularized with standard language used for literature. For Sanskrit had been standardized 2000 years ago and yet during the period it has been maintained, though minor lapses could be observed here and there.

One can learn as many as languages and use all of them without confusing between them and try to understand their literature and cultural contents of the words in their own face value. Thrusting one cultural content of a language into the other, will always result in misrepresenting them. 

I have seen many speaking Sanskrit as they like without any regard for the conventions of the standard language. It is their choice. If you ask me, I can also adopt the same words borrowed from any other language, instead of distorting their image in another language. Bus, Car, motor-cycle, etc. wedding day celebration etc.

In western culture, it is common that they live for some time together after marriage and at any moment they can depart with mutual consent or not. Hence, each year spent together is a matter of fact that gains much importance to celebrate. In India, it is becoming the fashion, imitating the western culture, and hence the marriage day celebration attached. You can sanskritize them without consulting any scholar's opinion about the words to express them. It is your choice.

"Cheers, Cheers, Cheers." clashing the wine pegs in celebrations, do not have an equivalent expression in Sanskrit. Please invent one.

I think they are from the output page itself when the formatting is removed for compactness in the message. Could you see my next message, without removing the format from the output page?

I think there are some problems with the mailing list too as some member had complained earlier. None of us were to see or read his messages. I think it is not the same in this case. I am not sure. I had heard the same complaint in some other fourm that Unicode encoded Devanagari fonts are not readable in her computer or mail-client. Naresh may solve it if it persists.

Dear Madam,
Herebelow is the scheme of the Monier William's dictionary online:
The English description contains a translation, grammatical and any other information listed in the MW. You may search for all of it.

The transliteration is based on the Harvard-Kyoto (HK) convention as follows:

It is the same result search result for "to cheer" posted by Mr.Sunder in my query for the equivalent expression of interjection "cheers" = Friendly remark said before starting to drink an alcoholic beverage (from Cambridge Dictionary).

Thank you for expressing your intention and opinion.Scholastic discussion and opinion is one thing, which needs testimony to say any thing.

 Free lance discussion need not any such restriction or standard. That is why you could not get any answer from the Sanskrit Teachers

 and got the same answer from me. I feel sympathy right with you....etc etc

Shreyas replies:

Respected Dr Bhat Sir,
Thank you very much for your scholarly evaluation of languge use. I fully agree with your well considered assertion that the sanctity of Sanskrit as standardized 2000 yrs ago must be maintained. After all the brilliant rishis standardized
the language with some good foresight, their aim being to preserve the cultural level and spiritual height that was reached at that time. Your advice is well understood that resort to practical words may be resorted to in informal chat but care has to be taken that the deep semantic content is not destroyed.

I came up with my query only because I am learning spoken Sanskrit and I found difficulty in conveying  'to celebrate'!

On a lighter note, if you permit me, I can say something about your last sentence 

"Cheers, Cheers, Cheers." clashing the wine pegs in celebrations, do not have an equivalent expression in Sanskrit. Please invent one".

In 1971, I had gone to Narobi for a three day official visit. My sponsor, a highly educated Krishna devotee from Gujarat, took me to his house one evening , poured some whisky and said "Let's now keep business aside and do some 'Krishna Krishna'! When I told him I didnt understand, he explained: Shri Krishna's yadav dynasty perished because of alcohol leading to yaadavaasthali and so whenevr we drink, we must remind ourselves of the poison we are taking. And so the least we cud do is to say "let's do Krishna Krishna' insteas of 'cheers'!
 
I  think he had already innovated a substitute for 'cheers'! And until I started keeping away from alcohol  from some ten years ago,I had been using that 'Krishna Krishna' regularly! Perhaps that has subtly helped me in remaining away from alcohol for the past 10 years or so. I think such innovations should be welcomed! No? 

Submitted in all humility and with fondest regards,
...Shreyas (learner for life).

Welcome to your innovation.

It can be always remembered the episode in Krishna's life cost his life itself, if you believe the Puranic episode. Even the dependents of Krishna were not saved from the alcholic incidence by the name of Krishna. This is the phala-stuti of Krishna's kavaca-mantra:

रोगविघ्नहतश्चैव ब्रह्महागरुतल्पग: ॥
स्त्रीहत्याबालघाती च सुरापी वृषलीपति: । 

मुच्यते सर्वपापेभ्यो य: पठेन्नात्रसंशय: ॥

It doesn't mean one who is drinking only should be seeking relief from all kinds of sins by reciting the stotra of Krishna. Anyhow it is your choice.

[Shreyas P. Munshi]

Respected Dr Bhat Sir,
I have not the slightest hesitation in agreing with you. And For Krishna Krishna for "cheers", I did say I was mentioning it in a lighter vein only...not as a scholastic assertion in any measure.
I think it's time to end the discussion here. But before doing that I must mention that I've learned a lot from the scholars like you and I shall remain eternally grateful for it. Thanks once again and Regards...Shreyas

Dear all,

The ready and easily thinkable and approachable meaning of the word Celebrate in Sanskrit is: according to- http://spokensanskrit.de/index.php?tinput=utsava&script=&direction=SE&link=y -soken sanskrit.de dictionary, it is UTHSAV.

Kindly clarify if I am wrong.

We wantto name in such a way that its a 'Grand Celebration' - Mahotsav was one Word, we were trying to see if we can get some more ideas on Sanskrit/Hindi Words to name this event. Any help is highly appreciated.

Thank You,

Runa

Runa,

  Why not simply use the prefix '15th' pañcadaśa as that  in itself is  a special anniversary.

Besides, it will keep these grammarians for quarrelling!
