Who is the author of "Ashtadhyayi"?

  • A.Sumitranandan
  • B.Raj Anand
  • C.Panini
  • D.Gita Piramal

Answer: C

Ashtadhyayi, the Sanskrit grammar in eight chapters, was composed by Panini, probably in the fourth century BC.

Its roughly 4,000 rules describe the language with a rigour that anticipates modern formal grammars, which is why Panini is studied in linguistics and computer science alike.
