Abstract

The word Pāli is used as a name for the language of the Theravada canon. According to the Pāli Text Society's Dictionary, the word seems to have its origins in commentarial traditions, wherein the Pāli (in the sense of the line of original text quoted) was distinguished from the commentary or vernacular translation that followed it in the manuscript. It is well known that ‘an idiom is a word or phrase which means something different from its literal meaning. Idioms are common phrases or terms whose meaning are changed, but can be understood by their popular use.’ Likewise, idioms are used for the language diversity in each language. Here, in this article written in Pāli, it is expected to give a brief comparative study on the substantiality of ‘Idioms’ used in Pāli and English languages.

Abstract

The Ṛg Veda is a collection of Vedic Sanskrit hymns counted among the four Hindu religious texts known as the Vedas. The Ṛg Veda was likely composed between roughly 1700–1100 BCE, making it one of the oldest texts of any Indo-Iranian language, one of the world's oldest religious texts. It was preserved over centuries by oral tradition alone and was probably not put in writing before the Early Middle Ages. The Ṛg Veda is considered to be amongst the earliest religious texts still revered by a living tradition. It consists of 1,028 hymns composed in Vedic Sanskrit, many of which are intended for various sacrificial rituals. These are contained in 10 books, known as Mandalas. This long collection of short hymns is mostly devoted to the praise of the gods. However, it also contains fragmentary references to historical events, notably the struggle between the early Vedic peoples (known as Aryans) and their enemies. This article is composing to discuss the facts that chronology of Ṛg Veda, its origin and evolution, the content of Ṛg Veda, language, literary and social characteristics of Ṛg Veda etc.
