Description

About the Book:-The author reveals that in the course of his study of the Sanskrit, which he has devoted himself to for a long time since he came back from Europe as a missionary overseas for more than eight years, he has noticed many points of similarity between this language and the language fallen in Goa, today generally known with the Konkani. And this close affinity was limited to scientific or religious terminology and high phraseology, but extended to vocabulary and phrases of everyday and domestic use, grammatical construction and declination and correlation. The desire arose in him here to indicate in a small capsule. The main points of difference between one language and the other, so that spirits mingled with the best study and more slowly would elaborate a complete dictionary of the language so neglected, and yet worthy of best of luck, because of its intrinsic merit, as it is the only rational and viable vehicle of popular education, especially religious. However, many difficulties arose to bring his project to fruition, and they made him feel the weight of the era more than once.
