Because of other work comparing the root-class-pada information from verbdata of SanskritVerb to that from MW (this work is described in others of these issues), we expect that there will need to be
adjustments to the mapping presented in sanverb_map.txt
.
In fact, we already know of one such adjustment that is needed, namely that involving the class 10 roots whose SanskritVerb spelling ends in a
. The relevant correspondence is in roots_a.txt.
We modify sanverb_map.txt using roots_a.txt , the result being in sanverb_map1.txt. This is further
described in the sanverb_map1
section of the documentation for pysanskrit1/dhaval/roots.
In order to compare inflected forms generated by SanskritVerb to those generated by pysanskrit, it is necessary to represent a SanskritVerb root with a Monier-Williams root. The section under _verbdatamap in the pysanskrit/dhaval/roots/readme.md describes the problem.
It also describes the first part of what seems a practical solution to the mapping, namely that presented in verbdata_map. With the correspondence of this file, we can transform the extracted SanskritVerb present tense conjugations conj_pre to a form that can be directly compared to a Pysanskrit generated conjugation.
As an example, the conj_pre conjugation table
can, in light of the verbdata_map correspondence
aki!:01:0092:aNk
be transformed toNow the header information
aNk pre 01A
is sufficient for Pysanskrit to generate its own conjugation table, which can then be compared SanskritVerb table.
