Digital Index of Noun and Verb Endings of Pāli Grammar

Right after some digitalized tables of Prof. Bucknell’s SANSKRIT MANUAL, our next program is to digitalize the endings of Pāli grammar also.

These digitized tables of Pāli nominals, pronouns, verbs’ endings have been referenced on the basis of several Pāli grammar books and dictionaries. We have now expanded the information in such a way that it can be incorporated as tools for various existing digital dictionaries and platforms. We hope this tool will be useful for students of Pāli and digital dictionaries users.
