However, Sanskrit koshas do much more than giving simple word-to-word translations or synonyms. They incorporate a wealth of information about the word, including the gender, grammatical information, various forms, usages from literature, special references, etc. Many students get lost in these koshas, as they are not aware of the structure of the kosha, or what the different things mean. Consequently, they are unable to use these to assist their language learning.
In this course, Dr. Chandrasekharan Raman explains the features of 4 major koshas (Two Sanskrit-English dictionaries, and Two Sanskrit-Sanskrit koshas), and teaches the learners to use online searchable repositories to get all the information and understand it.
