Dear Colleague,

This mail is being posted only because I noted that Burrow (The Sanskrit Language Ch.VI) has not been mentioned. As is well-known, unlike Renou (Grammaire de la 1952: 240ff), Burrow's approach is comparative-historical.  Burrow does not refer to others but seems to have worked directly upon Renou (the synchronic part is not much different) with elements from Brugmann.  I do not mention some other grammarians who have been missed and who are outdated. But, according to me, with the information furnished, succinctly, by Beekes (2011) one is not badly placed to work oneself.

Best

Dear colleagues,

I would be most grateful to receive any pointers to any description of
the cardinal numerals of Classical Sanskrit which is more complete
than what there is either in the descriptive grammars of Renou and of
Kale or in the teaching grammars of Mauer and of Aklujkar.

I also wish to know of any treatment of the morphological analysis,
either synchronic, including Paninian, or diachronic of the terms for
the positive integers 11 through 12 and 20, 30, ..., to 90.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Brendan Gillon
