## Description

New: can't recall a Sanskrit word? Describe it in English or your own language and see the words that fit. Every search is now kept for you under Search Results.

Sanskrit Lexicon is a Sanskrit–English dictionary for readers who want a clear answer without giving up the original scholarship. Search 250,000+ Sanskrit headwords across 12 classical dictionaries and 9 specialist indexes. Each result opens with a plain-English definition and keeps the full source text one tap away, organized by meaning rather than scattered across separate references.

FREE TO START
Sanskrit Lexicon is free to download and use. Every reader gets 3 dictionary searches a day, plus the Word of the Day, favorites, personal notes, declension tables, Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, the widget and iCloud sync. Context searches on a word you have already opened never count toward the daily three.

DESCRIBE A WORD YOU CAN'T RECALL
Type what a word means, in English or your own language, such as "the churning of the ocean", and see the Sanskrit words that fit, the likeliest marked. Every search is kept under Search Results, synced across your devices.

SHARE A WORD
• Tap Share on any word or definition to send it as a picture card on the app's painted sky, with a link that opens it in Sanskrit Lexicon or on sanskritlexicon.com.
• Save it to Photos, copy it, or send it in Messages, Mail or AirDrop.

FIND THE MEANING THAT FITS
Describe where you met a word, such as a ritual, a story, grammar, poetry, philosophy or law, and Sanskrit Lexicon finds the definitions that fit.
• Save the best matches as a personal category at the top of the definition screen.
• See the strongest matches first and remove results you do not need.
• Create multiple saved contexts for a word and revisit them across devices.
• Find saved context titles in Spotlight or open them through Siri and Shortcuts.

UNDERSTAND FIRST. STUDY DEEPLY.
• Start with a readable Simplified definition.
• Switch any card to Scholar view for the original dictionary text, notation, page references and source links.
• See different senses grouped into clear contexts, with the most common sense first.
• Keep your own note on any word and select or copy text from any definition.

FOLLOW THE WORDS AN ENTRY NAMES
Where a definition names other words, a Related line makes them tappable, and a Related Definitions group gathers entries elsewhere that name the word you are reading.

SEARCH THE WAY YOU TYPE
• Use Devanagari, IAST, Harvard-Kyoto, Velthuis, WX, SLP1 or plain ASCII.
• Type "krishna" to find kṛṣṇa; no diacritics or special keyboard required.
• Type a declined noun or a conjugated verb and its root comes up with the grammar.
• The best match is marked, and similar words follow when the spelling is off.
• Explore noun declension tables without leaving the word.

BUILT INTO YOUR APPLE DEVICES
• Ask Siri to look up a word, or describe one, read today's word, or open a saved word or context.
• On iOS 27, ask Siri to send the word on screen to a friend, and it goes as a card.
• Add Look Up, Word of the Day and Open Word actions in Shortcuts, and pass a word on as a picture.
• Find favorites, recent words, saved contexts and note text in Spotlight.
• Put the Word of the Day widget on your iPhone, iPad or Mac, and favorite today's word from it.
• Continue reading across devices with iCloud sync and Handoff.

MAKE SANSKRIT A DAILY PRACTICE
A hand-curated Word of the Day changes at midnight, is the same on all your devices and never repeats. Save favorites, keep notes and return to recent words.

DAY AND NIGHT
A painted sky, parchment cards and gilded edges frame every definition. In Dark Mode the sky becomes a starlit dusk and the cards darken to match.

MADE TO BE READ
Text follows your Dynamic Type setting. Search, share and note controls are labeled for VoiceOver, results are spoken as they arrive, and Reduce Motion stills the animations.

Searches require an internet connection. No account is required.
