कथा २ — शकुन्तलाकथा (p. 393)

  • HW 1:
    • Listen to Deshpande’s reading of the शकुन्तलाकथा and practice reading with him, following his model pronunciation. Translate more than half of the story (at least 16 lines or so) and submit it below:
  • HW 2:
    • Submit the rest of your translation of the story below and analyze the sandhi for lines 17 → end using our general rules. I.e., write the pre-sandhi word pair (मुनिस्तम् → मुनिः तम्) and provide the general rule (ः → homorganic sibilant // -V, if possible). Feel free to number the rules, so you need only number subsequent instances of it (rather than restate the entire rule each time).
    Provide an accurate, fluent English Translation.
