Sanskrit ṡṛiṅga (106)
Monier-Williams’ A Sanskrit-English Dictionary says Sanskrit word ṡṛiṅga refers to “the horn of an animal, a horn used for various purposes like drinking, blowing, and drawing blood from the skin.” It also denotes “the tusk of an elephant; the top or summit of a mountain, a peak, crag; the summit of a building, pinnacle, turret; any peak or projection or lofty object, elevation, point, end, extremity; a cusp or horn of the moon; the highest point, acme, height or perfection of anything; the horn as a symbol of self-reliance or strength or haughtiness; the rising of desire, excess of love or passion; a particular military array in the form of a horn or crescent; a syringe, water-engine; the female breast; a lotus; agallochum; a mark, token, sign; and a kind of medicinal or poisonous plant.” It is an offshoot of Tamil aṅku through the transformation of aṅku > ṡṛiṅga.
