The word for "photon" in Sanskrit. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 15:49, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I think these two words should be given a bit more leeway. Sanskrit is somewhat not quite dead, much like Latin, and people use new words for modern terms in Latin too. I think use of Sanskrit is quite popular still in India. I would be more surprised if Sanskrit didn't have a word for a photon than if it did. So I think this nomination should be kept open until someone with enough knowledge can confirm that there are no attestations, rather than closing it because nobody bothered to check. 23:05, 5 April 2013 (UTC)


 * It's been four and a half months. I'm content to give this another few weeks before deleting it. It can always be restored if someone does come along with citations. - -sche (discuss) 00:04, 11 August 2013 (UTC)
