Encyclopedia > Set and anit roots
The title given to this article is incorrect due to technical limitations. The correct title is seṭ and aniṭ roots.

The terms set and anit refer to classes of roots in Sanskrit grammar. In the the terminology of Panini, se (from sa-i, Aṣṭādhyāyī 1.2.18, 6.4.121)) means "with (see copulative a) an i-sound), and an-i (Aṣṭādhyāyī 3.1.45, 6.1.188, 6.4.51, 7.2.61) means "without (see privative a) an i-sound". The i sound in question is a phoneme i that appears in certain morphological circumstances for certain, lexically defined roots, regularly continuing PIE Laryngeals.
