Introduction Śivas¯ utras and praty¯ ah¯ aras S-sortability Minimality of the Śivas¯ utras General problem of S-sortability Given a set of classes, order the elements of the classes (without duplications) in a linear order (in a list) such that each single class forms a continuous interval with respect to that order. The target orders are called S-orders A set of classes is S-sortable if it has an S-order On the Construction of Śivas¯ utra -Alphabets Wiebke Petersen

Introduction Śivas¯ utras and praty¯ ah¯ aras S-sortability Minimality of the Śivas¯ utras General problem of Śivas¯ utra -alphabets (S-alphabets) Given a set of classes, find an S-order of the elements of the classes. Interrupt this list by markers ( anubandhas ) such that each single class can be denoted by a sound-marker-pair ( praty¯ ah¯ ara ). Note that every S-order becomes a Śivas¯ utra -alphabet (S-alphabet) by adding a marker ( anubandha ) behind each element. Given the set of classes {{ a , b } , { a , b , c } , { a , b , c , d }} , the order a b c d is one of its S-orders and a M 1 b M 2 c M 3 d M 4 is one of its S-alphabets.

Principle of economy Staal 1962 Another general principle is also implicitly used by P¯ an . ini. This is the famous economy criterion [. . . ] In accordance with this principle each linguistic rule should be given in the shortest possible form, whereas the number of metalinguistic symbols should be reduced as far as possible. ⇒ 5. criterion of minimality: total list is as short as possible while the sound list is minimal On the Construction of Śivas¯ utra -Alphabets Wiebke Petersen

Example: semi-formal argument Kiparsky 1991 The reasoning from economy goes like this. To be grouped together in a praty¯ ah¯ ara, sounds must make up a continuous segment of the list. Economy requires making the list as short as possible, which means avoiding repetitions of sounds, and using as few markers as possible. Consequently, if class A properly includes class B, the elements shared with B should be listed last in A; the marker that follows can then be used to form praty¯ ah¯ aras for both A and B. In this way the economy principle, by selecting the shortest grammar, determines both the ordering of sounds and the placement of markers among them.
