MahÄvyutpatti
The Mahāvyutpatti ( Devanagari: महाव्युत्पत्ति ) is a Sanskrit - Tibetan dictionary terminology. It was written at the beginning of the 9th century and contains 9565 entries in 227 chapters.
The Mahāvyutpatti (from Sanskrit maha "great" vyutpatti " derivation, etymology " ) was established in the year 802 or 814 out of a desire to create a standardized terminology for Tibetan sanskrit terms of Buddhism. It was created by a team of translators from Tibetans and Indians, with the support of the Tibetan royal family. It was recorded in the Buddhist canon and its terminological equivalents were binding for subsequent translations, therefore it has been understood as a " royal decree ". The same team also wrote the ་. སྒྲ་སྦྱོར་བམ་བམ་པོ་གཉིས་པ་་. (* Madhyavyutpatti ), a review of a selection of terms from Mahāvyutpatti.
Later editions came with translations into Chinese, Mongolian and Manchurian. The Mahāvyutpatti inspired numerous glossaries as the Wǔ yì Hebi Jiyao "五 译 合璧 集 要".
