XI Konkani dnil Marathi of the 17th. century 'o Sarasvati Mahal Library " of Tanjavar, Tamil Nadu, pieserves an old manuscript Marathi vocabulary, , named 'e Akaradi Prakrit Bhasheoha Nighantu ", the authorship of which, in the " Descriptive â‚Źatalogrre of the Marathi MSS. in the TMSSM Library, No..1869", is .assigned to Kalerau Appa, about whom do information is available. This vocabulary was edited.in 1973, in Pune, by Mr. X. G. Tulpule under the title of Marathi Bhashecha Tanjavari Kox." " Tanjavar was one of the Shahaji's jaghirs in South India held by Veonkoji Bhosle, Shivaji's cousin, as a vassal under Bijapur. Some Marathi families accompaniedJeonkoji and established in tbis distant district.

he

X.G.. Tulpule gives a detailed description of the above Tanjavari Marathi

vocabulary. Ifcontains about 10,000 vocables, some ofwhich are not accâ‚Źptable in the Marathi language. Meanings are given in Marathi, sometimes just in one werd and sometimed in many words, and also in Old Marathi; meanings of 4O0 to 500 vocables are given in Dravidian languages, viz. Tamil and Telugu, and often in all three languages : Marathi, Tamil and Telugu ; similarly Sanskrit, Parsi and Hindustani synonyms are found, as well :as vocables of old Marathi literature, such as of Jnaneshvara and Mhanubhau, are recorded; The Tanjavari vocabulary was compiled in the later hatf of the 17th. c., and this is the first proper vocabulary of the Marathi language, which strangely

was produced in Tamil Nadu, when in Maharasthra no such wotk was done.

However, in Goa the first Konkani vocabulary was compiled 100 years

earlier than the above first Marathi vocabulary. Diogo Ribeiro's Konkani vocabulary is dated 1626, atd, as he affirms in its title, it is an augmented version of the one produced by his predecessors of the Society of Jesus' The Konkani vocabulary, found in the old Portuguese Lyceum Library of Panjim, Goa, which I have described in a Post scriptum to ttre No- VII of this series of articles, is most probably the one which Ribeiro augmented with more Konkani meanings, vocables, phrases, idioms and proverbs, but it is not the first Konkani vocabulary, as I was led to state there. Recently I have obtain' ed xerox copies of two manuscript Konkani vocabularies, existing in the Biblioteca Nacional, Lisbon ; !) Vocabulario da lingoa Canari. Comeqa polo os alphabeto clos nomes da nossq. lingoa pera que mais facilmente se achem Nomes que buscarmos (codex No. 3044) ; and 2) vocabulario Da limguoa canarim (codex No. 3195 ); both these vocabularies are Jesuit works, and the latter is a rearranged version of the former, and slightly augmented with a few more entries ; and the Lyceum vocabulary is, most probably, an enlarg' ed version of the second one by adding about 2000 entries'

Besides the above four vocabularies, namely Ribeiro's of 1626, Lyceum vocabulary and codices Nos. 3044 and 3195, I know of vocabulario Da Lingoa Da terra, existing in the Ajuda Library of Portugal, and Vocabulario Da Lingoa' Canarina com Versam Portuguesa, edited by " Junta de Investiga' gdes do ultramar ", Lisbon, but both of them are later enlarged manuscript versions of Ribeiro. Braga Library of Portugal is also reported to possess one or more Konkani vocabularies ; in case any one of these is not earlier to' the codex No. 3044, then the latter is probably the first Konkani vocabulary, preserved by the Biblioteca Nacional of Lisbon, com-riled b:fore 1570, and

letters. So, while the first Marathi vocabulary first I(onkani vocabulary was produced by 1570.

c) A few Marathi vocables present morphological forns, similar to. those of the l7th. c. Konkani, which are preserved in the South Goa, and often in Mangalore, till to-day, thus suggesting rhat the primitive Marathi morphology rvas close to that of Konkani. The Tanjavari Marathi kox and Ribeiro's Konkani vocabulary illustrate the above view. 1. T.,R.-"Aji"--To-day 2, T., R. " Itukem, itulem " - So much 3. T,,R.-"Konnu"-Who 4.
