Abstract

Computational linguistic began more than sixty years ago. The designing of a system splits upsarg and pratyay of Sanskrit word using Maharishi Panini Sanskrit grammar framework and is a more challenging task. In Sanskrit, sentences are combinations of more than one words and word is derived from fix set of . It means by adding upsarg and pratyay before and after of any word we can derive a new word is a basic building block of Sanskrit grammar, from that we can derive thousands of new Sanskrit words by adding one or more . Upsarg and pratyay are performing the major role to derive a new word, which is changing the meaning of the whole word, and it also eases the pronunciation of a word. In one word whether single or conjoined is broken to form two words. Splitting upsarg and pratyay of any word is one subtask for a complete analysis of input data. The work mainly focuses on the Maharishi Panini Sanskrit grammar framework and splits upsarg and pratyay of the input word and goes to the base of the word which is called .
