"श्मशान" meaning in Sanskrit

See श्मशान in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ɕmɐ.ɕɑː.nɐ́/ [Vedic], /ɕmɐ.ɕɑː.n̪ɐ/ [Classical-Sanskrit]
Etymology: Of unclear origin. Theories taking the term as an aphetic derivative of अश्मन् (áśman, “stone, firmament”) or शी (śī, “to lie down”) are semantically and morphologically dubious, as are theories deriving the word from a phrase *श्मशारु रुधत् (śmaśāru rudhat, “the beard will keep off”) or the syllable *शान (śāna) from शा (śā, “to regale, sharpen”).
