''Āryā meter'' is a meter used in Sanskrit and Prakrit verses. A verse in āryā metre is in four metrical feet called ''pāda''s. Unlike the majority of meters employed in classical Sanskrit, the āryā meter is based on the number of ''mātrā''s (morae) per ''pāda''. A syllable containing a short vowel counts for one ''mātrā'', and a syllable containing a long vowel or a short vowel followed by two consonants counts for two ''mātrā''s. It is believed that arya meter was taken from the gatha meter of Prakrit. 〔 p. 653 〕 Arya metre is common in Jain Prakrit texts and hence considered as favourite metre of early authors of Jainism. The earlier form of the arya metre is called old gati, which occurs in a some very early Prakrit and Pàli texts.〔 〕 ==Āryā== The basic ''āryā'' verse has 12, 18, 12 and 15 ''mātrā''s in the first, second, third, and fourth ''pāda''s respectively. Vṛttaratnākara lists several other conditions: # Odd numbered mātrā-gaṇas should not be ja-gaṇa. # Sixth gaṇa should be ja-gaṇa. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arya metre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
