"क्षण" meaning in Sanskrit

See क्षण in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /kʂɐ.ɳɐ/ [Vedic], /ˈkʂɐ.ɳɐ/ [Classical-Sanskrit]
Etymology: Probably related to अक्षि (akṣi, “eye”), perhaps via a clipping of अभीक्ष्ण (abhīkṣṇa, “constant, perpetual, every moment”), which would be decomposed as अभि (abhi) + अक्षि (akṣi). Compare German Augenblick (“instant, moment”) for a similar semantic development from the same root.
