Information

English to Sanskrit Art/Literary IT (Information Technology) litterature
Dear All, The word information is translated as a jnyan (in Sanskrit) or suchanaa (in Hindi) which according to me are unsuitable. Kindly suggest a good Sanskrit word for it.
Proposed translations (Sanskrit)
4 +1 soochana

Soochna This word is the used for instruction. Though Aapte Dictionary says Soochanam` is the right word for information. But I feel information is something different than instruction. It's a data.

soochana


'soochana' is also used in modern sanskrit.

it's aakarant 'aa' ending word, feminie gender.
As a verb, it's dhatoo roop goes like this in form of 'sooch' as Lat lakaar (present tense)
soochayati soochayatah soochayanti
soochayasi soochathah soochayath
soochayaami soochyaawah soochyaamah.

'Sooch' - to inform - soochit karna (hindi)

According to the context, we can phrase the sanskrit sentence using the word 'jnana' as mentioned by you as per our wish.

Hope it satisfies your need!

Warm Regards!

Soochna - This word is the used for instruction. Though Aapte Dictionary says Soochanam` is the right word for information. But I feel information is something different than instruction. It's a data.
PRAKAASH:
If it's soochanam, it's makaaraant not 'aakaaraant' as I mentioned.
data w.r.t. information may be translated as 'purva-nirdisht soochana', 'sambandhi soochana' etc. As far as I remember, soochana is the best option. Please try to use right prefix to make it the needed Sanskrit word.
