For a long period in history Sanskrit has been the cultured language of poetry, politics, religion and culture in most South Asian regions, extending at times to parts of Central as well as South East Asia. The language was kept highly regulated by the proliferating grammatical traditions of the subcontinent, but also through a corpus of monolingual lexica (kosha) that aided the learner and served as reference to readers and commentators. These ancient and medieval dictionaries had normative power, but some also tried to record the usage of words in actual literature and thereby to update the recognised vocabulary of the language.Among this corpus the lexicon composed by the poet Mankha, who lived in Kashmir during the twelfth century, is in many respectsunique. The author tries to capture new senses of words previously unrecorded, and he provides in his autocommentary quotations from actual literature for the senses given. The text has been edited only once in 1897 and thus came too late to be included in the still current academic Sanskrit lexica. The value of its quotations lies not only in the fact that it provides early testimonia for words and senses, they also enable us to date authors and texts quoted with more precision. All this can, however, not be achieved by the edition of 1897, in which the text of the commentary appears only in the form of small and fragmented extracts.The present project will produce a critical edition of the text and commentary and thereby make the vocabulary of the Mankhakosha and the testimonia in the commentary accessible to Sanskrit lexicography as well as to the many other branches of pre-modern Indian studies that depend on Sanskrit sources.

在历史上的很长一段时间里，梵语一直是大多数南亚地区的诗歌，政治，宗教和文化的文化语言，有时延伸到中亚和东南亚的部分地区。这种语言受到次大陆不断增长的语法传统的高度管制，但也通过单语词汇库（kosha）来帮助学习者，并作为读者和评论家的参考。这些古代和中世纪的词典具有规范性的力量，但有些词典也试图记录实际文学中的词汇用法，从而更新语言中公认的词汇。在这些语料库中，世纪居住在克什米尔的诗人曼卡（Mankha）撰写的词汇在许多方面都很独特。作者试图捕捉新的意义的话以前没有记录，他在他的autocommentary报价提供了从实际文学的意义。该文本仅在1897年被编辑过一次，因此来得太迟，无法被收录到仍然流行的梵文学术词典中。其引文的价值不仅在于它为词语和意义提供了早期的证明，而且还使我们能够更精确地确定引用的作者和文本的日期。然而，这一切都不能通过1897年的版本来实现，本项目将制作一个文本和评注的批判性版本，从而使梵语词典学以及前梵语词典学的许多其他分支能够使用《曼卡科萨》的词汇和评注中的证词。现代印度研究依赖于梵语来源。
