Hindi-English Glossary This Glossary lists all the vocabulary items occurring in the H passages except those items with which readers of this book are assumed to be familiar, omitting also proper nouns and those words glossed adequately in the text. The siglum ‘S’ in the left-hand column designates not only genuine S words but also the numerous neologisms coined from S roots and/or by analogy with existing S forms. This makes any attempt at computing the percentages of genuine S loans rather unreliable; but a glance at the glossary will give an accurate enough indication of the preponderance of S loans or coinages in modern H prose. In addition to the usual conventions, the abbreviations ho. for hon@ and ka. for karna@ have been used in the glossary. a ais a ae adj. nonsensical m. difference adj.pref. blind m, part, element m. character, letter m. knowledge of writing, literacy m. initiation into literacy adj. next, former; m. elder, ancestor m. indigestion adj. unknown m. ignorance adv. so, therefore adv. so, therefore ppn. besides, apart from adv. extremely Gj. or adj. fantastic, supernatural m. right adj. incomplete adj.pref. half- adj. endless, infinite adj. unnecessary m. love, fondness ppn. in conformity with m. translation m. translator, interpreter adj. several, many adj. unique, extraordinary m. ‘grain and wealth’, affluence adj. other; 40-7 adj. various adj. illiterate adj. unfamiliar, unrecognized woavon gei2haigaeea ee aaa WUHAN EMH vo 181oo >HHHHMRHHH>H>HO>HOG >oavan > 1999447 vga gastajjtt3* HE >>>oro f. requirement; #artet ppn. compared with adj. non-current adj. irrelevant, out of context adj. unfortunate, unlucky m. dearth, lack m. law case, suit, accusation m, practice, familiarity m, official, court functionary adj. such and such, a certain one adj. unreal, false m. first letter of the A alphabet f.
