"व्यजन" meaning in Sanskrit

See व्यजन in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ʋjɐ.d͡ʑɐ.nɐ/ [Vedic], /ʋjɐ.d͡ʑɐ.n̪ɐ/ [Classical-Sanskrit]
Etymology: Of unclear origin, with many theories proposed: * Hoffman considers the word a compound of वि- (vi-, “apart, away”) + ईज- (īja-), the latter from the root अज् (aj, “to drive, propel”). This appears to be Mayrhofer's preferred derivation. * Burrow considers the word as borrowed from Dravidian; compare Tamil வீசு (vīcu, “to throw; to blow (of wind)”), Telugu వీచు (vīcu, “to blow (of wind); to wave (as a fan)”), Kui (India) ୱୀଂଜା (wīñja). In light of the word's lack of Vedic attestation, the possibility of this derivation rises. * Wright considers the word as jointly derived from the roots विच् (vic, “to sift”) and विज् (vij, “to dart, speed”), with contamination from the Dravidian root above. * Horn notes a similarity to Persian بادبزن (bâdbezan, “(hand) fan”), though a relation is unlikely.
