TERMS PREVAILING IN COMPOSITION.   163

2. TERMS PREVAILING IN COMPOSITION.

There are some terms of such frequent occurrence in the composition of geographical names that I have collected them together in the following comparative list. It might have been considerably extended if all the varieties met with in the respective languages had been included; but it was necessary here to limit the collection to such elements only as, more or less modified, are frequently employed in forming the names of the various localities. The languages of isolated aboriginal tribes have been also omitted here, as being too numerous, and at the same time of very limited extent.' .

TOWN.   INDIA in general: shâhar or sher; nagri, nâgâr, the latter not unfre-

quently spoken (and spelt by the Europeans) nagger ; pur, pûra, pûram,

phi; pattan, patnam, from the Sanskr. pâttana.
