It is widely assumed Pāṇinian languages (generated using the formalism he used for describing Sanskrit) are context free languages but the following paper argues that they are a much larger set than CFLs. https://web.stanford.edu/~kiparsky/Papers/panini-1.pdf My Knuth tale: I happened to be sitting near Prof. Knuth at a dinner last December and I mentioned to him Pāṇini & Sanskrit in the context of something I work on now and then. He heard Sanskrit and immediately pointed me to this Christmas lecture of his! |
