Englishअपभ्रंश Tatpur. m. (-शः) 1.
^1 Falling down.
^2 Incorrect language
whether the form of the word be at variance with the rules
of Sanskṛt grammar, or its sense not a Sanskṛtic one
e. g. Kumārila in his Mīmānsā Vārttika: यथा साध्वनुरूपत्वा-
त्प्रमादाशक्तिजेष्वपि । जायते वाचकभ्रान्तिस्तथैव म्लेच्छभाषिते ॥
शब्दापभ्रंशवदेव गौणभ्रान्त्यादिप्रयोगनिमित्ता अर्थापभ्रंशा भ-
वन्ति
or the same: देशभाषापभ्रंशपदानि हि विप्लुतिभूयि-
ष्ठानि न शक्यन्ते विवेक्तुम्.
^3 The name of the lowest
class of the Prākṛt dialects
according to some the same
as the Paisāchī dialect, according to others different from
the latter and inferior to it
the division of the Prākṛt
dialect being either: the Bhāṣā (comprising the Prākṛt
proper or the Māhārāṣtrī, the Śaurasenī, Māgadhī, Ardha-
māgadhī and the southern dialects), the Vibhāṣā (compris-
ing the Śākārī, Chāṇḍālī, Śābarī, Ābhīrī, Drāvidī and
Odrī) and the Apabhranśa or Paisāchī (comprising the pro-
vincial dialects as the Gurjarātī, Kārnatī &c.)
or the Prā-
kṛt proper, the Śaurasenī, the Māgadhī (with the Ardhamā-
gadhī and the other dialects named before), the Paisāchī,
and the Apabhranśa, the latter then being especially ap-
propriated to the language of the Ābhīra and contiguous
peoples and excluded from poetry where the other dia-
lects may occur. See Lassen's Institutiones Linguae Pra-
criticae, and compare the following remark of Bharatasena
on a verse of the Bhaṭṭikāvya where several words are
Sanskṛt as well as Prākṛt: काव्यं संस्कृतप्राकृतापभ्रंशभेदा-
त्त्रिविधम् । प्राकृतोऽपि संस्कृतभवः संस्कृतसमो देशी चेत्य-
नेकविधः । अत्र देशिसंस्कृतभवयोः प्राकृतयोरपभ्रंशस्य चा-
साधुशब्दत्वेनाधर्मजनकत्वात् । उपक्रान्ते संस्कृते बन्धे समावेशा-
संभवाच्च । महाकविर्भर्तृहरिरसामर्थ्यं बोधयञ्छब्दसमायाः प्रा-
कृतभाषायाः संस्कृतबन्धे समावेशं दर्शयति &c. According to
several comm. on the Amarak. the word may be written
also अपभ्रंस
but this reading is rejected as wrong by Rā-
yamukuṭa: दन्त्योऽपीत्येके । तदसत् । स्रन्सु भ्रन्सु अधःपतने ।
इत्यस्य घञि रूपं न दृश्यत इति भाष्यादावुक्तत्वात्.--E. भ्रंश्
with अप, kṛt aff. घञ्.
2. A bad fall. E. अप and भ्रंश (भ्रंश्, kṛt aff. अच्).
