Sanskrit, the etymology
            The etymological meaning of Sanskrit is pure. It is derived from the root सम् + कृ by adding suffix to it. But, while adding suffix an augment स् comes in between the prefix and the root. For instance,
सम् + कृ
सम् + कृ +
सम् + स् + कृ +
सम् स्कृत
संस्कृत
An augment स् carries a great significance because of which the word gets a positive, good and praising meaning. The words like सुसंस्कृत, संस्कार, संस्करण etc are derived in the same manner. Due to the absence of this augment, the words like संकृत, संकर, संकार gets negative meaning.
