Abbreviations compared
Every Cologne dictionary cites the same body of Sanskrit literature and uses the same
grammatical categories — but each prints its own abbreviations for them. Monier-Williams
writes the Ṛgveda RV., Benfey Rigv., Vaidya R.V., the Petersburg dictionaries ṚV.
This page lines those legends up against each other, and then lists each dictionary's full
legend where it has been transcribed.
18 of 44 catalogued dictionaries have a machine-readable abbreviation legend transcribed here; 26 keep theirs in scanned front matter (linked below). Pilot: PWG and PW also show the preface legend store joined to body citation counts (697 keys).
The data is generated from the canonical abbreviation files in each dictionary's repository
(see the source: link in every section below); it is not hand-authored. Where a
dictionary's legend exists only as a scanned page, the section links to that front matter
instead. See Abbreviations & Citations for how the <ls>,
<ab> and <lex> markup tags carry these abbreviations inside an entry.

Grammatical & general terms, side by side
The same comparison for grammatical abbreviations (gender, case, pada, verb classes).
French (BUR, STC), German (GRA, PWG, PW) and Latin (BOP) dictionaries are matched by the
meaning of the term, so e.g. accusative lines up across acc., Acc. and accusatif.

| Mahāsamāj. | Mahāsamājasūtra, in Waldschmidt, Kl. Skt. Texte 4. |
| Māy | Mahā-Māyūrī. Two figures refer to page and line of ed. by Oldenbourg in Zapiski Vostochnago Otdelenija Imp. Russk. Archeol. Obschestva, Tom 11 (1899), 218—261. A single number refers to the numbered lines of ‘Le catalogue géographique des yakṣa dans la Mahā-Māyūrī’, by S. Lévi, JAs. XI. 5 (1915), pp. 1—138. |
| Megh | Meghasūtra, ed. Bendall, JRAS 1880, 288 ff. |
| Mmk | (Ārya-)Mañjuśrīmūlakalpa, ed. Gaṇapati Śāstri, 3 vols., Trivandrum, 1920, 1922, 1925. See Lalou, in the following list of abbreviations. |
| MPS | E. Waldschmidt, Das Mahāpariṇirvānasūtra. 3 parts; Abhandlungen der deutschen Akademie…zu Berlin, 1950, 1951. Arrived too late to be extensively used; references are to Waldschmidtʼs numbered divisions. |
| MSV | Mūla-Sarvāstivāda-Vinaya; Gilgit Manuscripts, ed. Nalinaksha Dutt, Vol. 3, Parts i (undated), ii (1942), iii (1943), Srinagar, Kashmir. Part iv (1950) arrived late, but its most important words have been included. Unfortunately this valuable series came to hand so late in the progress of my task that I felt it impossible to include Volumes 1 and 2, which seem somewhat less important. |
| Mv | Mahāvastu, ed. Senart, Paris, 1882, 1890, 1897. The first volume of Jonesʼs translation (London, 1949) appeared, to my regret, too late to be much used (I received it in 1950). |
| Mvy | Mahāvyutpatti. Cited by numbered entries in ed. of Sakaki, Kyoto, 1916, with Sanskrit and Tibetan Indexes, 1925 and 1936; some variants are cited from Mironov (2d ed. of Minaeff, which is cited in BR and pw), St. Petersburg, 1910—11. Tibetan version cited from Sakaki; also translations of many Chinese and Japanese renderings ibidem. |
| Prāt | Prātimokṣasūtra des Sarvāstivādins, ed. Finot (with translation of Chinese version by Huber), JAs. XI.2 (1913), 473 ff. |
| RP | Rāṣṭrapālaparipṛcchā, ed. Finot, St. Petersburg, 1901. |
| Sādh | Sādhanamālā, ed. Bhattacharya, Baroda, 2 vols., 1925, 1928. |
| Śāl | Śālistambasūtra, (reconstructed) ed. LaVallée Poussin; Bouddhisme, Études et matériaux, Théorie des douze causes (Gand, 1913), pp. 69—90. |
| Samādh | Samādhirājasūtra, (1) chapters 8, 19, 22, ed. Régamey, Warsaw, 1938, cited by chapters and numbered sections or verses; (2) ed. Das and Vidyābhūshan (Calcutta, 1896); references (only a few; text incredibly corrupt) cited by page and lien, thus: ‘p. —, line —’. |
| Saṃy. Āg. | Saṃyuktāgama; fragments from Stein mss. ed. LaVallée Poussin, JRAS 1913, 569 ff.; a few references to numbers of fragments (1—15), followed by r(ecto) or v(erso) when necessary, and line of mss. |
| Śikṣ | Śikṣāsamuccaya, ed. Bendall, St. Petersburg, 1897—1902; transl. Bendall and Rouse, London, 1922. |
| SP | Saddharmapuṇḍarīka, ed. Kern and Nanjio, St. Petersburg, 1912, abbreviated KN; supplementary references to ed. of Wogihara and Tsuchida, Tokyo, 1934—35, abbreviated WT; fragments of ‘Kashgar’ or Central Asiatic recension, ed. Thomas and Lüders, ap. Hoernle, MR 133 ff., 144 ff.; others, ed. LaVallée Poussin, JRAS 1911, 1070 ff.; transl. Burnouf (Lotus de la Bonne Loi, Paris, 1852), and Kern (SBE 21, Oxford, 1884). Tibetan citations chiefly from block-print in my possession, partly from WT. When my work was practically ready for print, my colleague Professor Rahder received, and lent to me, the photostatic reproduction of the ms. referred to by WT as Ḱ. It has been cited a very few times. The quotations from it in WT seem to be very inaccurate. |
| ŚsP | Śatasāhasrikā-prajñāpāramitā, ed. P. Ghoṣa, Bibliotheca Indica, Calcutta, 1902 ff. |
| Sukh | Sukhāvatīvyūha (‘Larger’ and ‘Smaller’), ed. Müller, Oxford, 1883. |
| Sūtrāl. | Asaṅga, Mahāyāna-sūtrālaṃkāra, ed. and transl. Lévi, Bibliothèque de lʼÉcole des Hautes Études, 159 and 190, Paris, 1907, 1911. The language is standard Skt., but the text and Léviʼs notes are important for the understanding of many technical terms. Cited by chapter and verse (with commentary after each verse). |
| Suv | Suvarṇabhāsottamasūtra, ed. Nobel, Leipzig, 1937; Tibetan version, ed. same, Leiden and Stuttgart, 1944. |
| Ud | Udānavarga; chap. 1—21, ed. Chakravarti (1930; except ch. 4, for which see Lévi, JAs. X. 20, 1912, 203 ff.); ch. 29, ed. Pischel, SBBA 1908, 968 ff.; ch. 30, 31, 32, ed. LaVallée Poussin, JRAS 1912, 369 ff. Cited by chapter and verse. |
