Bilingual Summary
English This lesson explains the concept of Karakas (Case Relations) in Sanskrit grammar. It describes how different words in a sentence relate to the main verb (Kriyapadam) to complete the meaning. The lesson defines the six main Karakas:
Karta (Subject): The doer of the action (e.g., Gaurav writes).
Karma (Object): What is done/acted upon (e.g., writes an essay).
Karanam (Instrument): The tool used (e.g., with a pen).
Sampradanam (Recipient): For whom it is done (e.g., gives to the teacher).
Apadanam (Separation): From where it separates (e.g., falls from the tree).
Adhikaranam (Location): Where the action takes place (e.g., falls in the courtyard). Note: Sambandha (Relation - Genitive Case) is technically not considered a Karaka in Sanskrit because it relates a noun to another noun, not directly to the verb.
Marathi (मराठी) हा पाठ संस्कृत व्याकरणातील कारक (Case Relations) या संकल्पनेची ओळख करून देतो. वाक्यातील इतर शब्दांचा मुख्य क्रियापदाशी (Kriyapadam) कसा संबंध असतो हे यात स्पष्ट केले आहे. पाठात सहा मुख्य कारके सांगितली आहेत: १. कर्ता (Subject): क्रिया करणारा (उदा. गौरव लिहितो). २. कर्म (Object): ज्याच्यावर क्रिया होते (उदा. निबंध लिहितो). ३. करणम् (Instrument): ज्या साधनाने क्रिया केली जाते (उदा. लेखणीने लिहितो). ४. संप्रदानम् (Recipient): ज्याला काही दिले जाते (उदा. शिक्षकाला देतो). ५. अपादानम् (Separation): ज्यापासून वियोग होतो (उदा. झाडावरून पडते). ६. अधिकरणम् (Location): जिथे क्रिया घडते (उदा. अंगणात पडते). टीप: संबंध (षष्ठी विभक्ती) हे संस्कृतमध्ये तांत्रिकदृष्ट्या 'कारक' मानले जात नाही कारण त्याचा संबंध क्रियापदाशी नसून दुसऱ्या नामाशी असतो.
