This is a pioneering attempt to compile a novel Sanskrit dictionary dealing with special usages, such as idioms and phrases etc. While dictionaries of this type of special usages are compiled for modern languages like English, such dictionaries are a desideratum for Sanskrit language. The author combines in this dictionary the virtues of the three disciplines of Sanskrit related to words, Nirukta (etymology), Vyakarana (grammar) and Kosha (dictionary). It contains a collection of practical usages by the celebrated masters of Sanskrit language, from the classical literature, and also, to a limited extent, from the numerous á¡stras. The collection is not limited to words, but includes áiÀ¶a-prayogas of larger syntactical units like phrases and idioms. The meaning of each word and phrase is explained, first in Sanskrit, then in English, followed by references from the texts where these phrases were used.
