Definition

• Akhyata It is a group of suffixes. These
  suffixes are
• terminating and they agree with person.
• Akhyata attaches to a verb root to form a verb
  form.
• e.g.
• ?? ?? ????
• verb root Akhyata verb form
• The term and concept of Akhyata is borrowed
• from Sanskrit grammar.

4
History

• The previous grammarians like Dadoba Panduranga
  were giving only verb forms, without a systematic
  segmentation. e.g. ????, ????, ????? etc.
• They assumed a one-to-one mapping from form to
  tense. e.g. ???? present tense

5
History contd.

• They ignored usages where the same form shows
  more than one tense. e.g.
• ?? ???? (I do).
• ?? ???? ???? (I will do it later.)

6
Damales Treatment to Verbs

• It systematically segments the verb forms in to
  verb root and suffixes.
• It groups the suffixes according to their usage
  in different person, number and gender.
• It names the groups of suffixes according to the
  phoneme they contain. e.g. takhyata, vakhyata,
  lakhyata etc.
• It gives priority to form rather than meaning.

Classification of suffixes

Classification of Akhyata

• On the basis of different forms which are used in
  different persons, and number
• There are seven groups namely
• Prathama takhyata
• Dvitiya takhyata
• Lakhyata
• Vakyata/ avakhyata
• I-akhyata
• U-akhyata
• Ilakytata

9
Classification contd.

• On the basis of inflection for gender
• salinga agrees with gender.
• alinga does not agree with gender
• Prathama takhyata, Dvitiya takhyata, Lakhyata and
  vakyata/ avakhyata are salinga
• I-akhyata, U-akhyata, Ilakytata are alinga

Salient Features

• Considers actual data
• Analyses segments of verb forms systematically.
• Interprets all different meanings of a single
  form.

25
Limitations

• Many suffixes have become out of date. e.g.
  ?????, ???, ?????, ???
• Chakhyata(???????) is not mentioned.
• Determination of akhyata of gauna dhatu(??? ???? )

Gauna dhatu

• Gauna dhatu verb roots of those verb forms in
  which the segmentation of verb roots and suffixes
  is no clear cut.
• ???, ????, ????, ??????, ??????, ???, ???, ???
  are verb forms of Gauna dhatu
• They all agree with person and number
• Damale has tried to segment them, but his efforts
  are not satisfactory.
