    No exaggeration, but you could literally merge letters to any word to create new meanings in Sanskrit, then merge the newly formed words with pre-existing or each other and the process continues, theoretically there's no end. Ancient Sanskrit scriptures and even modern-day writings can and have already had sentences that are one-word long and there's no end.

    The reason why Sanskrit has so many words is because there are 10 verb tenses for each verb plus a religious tense that is not used in normal speech or text. Each tense has 9 conjugations so each verb has 90 forms. Furthermore, there is a concept known as Samasam (not samosa) that joins multiple related words like subjects and adjectives. This makes it possible to create an infinite amount of words as combined words are treated as new full words.

      If I am right, Umlaut in German is like Sandhi in Sanskrit. While Umlaut is only for German vowels, but there are Sandhi rules for all of the Sanskrit alphabets.
      Eg) 1) tathā + uktaṃ= tathoktaṃ (tathā= as per, uktaṃ= having told/ being told. Tathoktaṃ= as being told)
      2)yad + śaktiḥ= yacchaktiḥ (yad= whose, śaktiḥ= energy. yacchaktiḥ= He, whose energy)
      ---------------------------------------------------------------
      And komposita in German is somewhat similar to samās of Sanskrit, except that in samās, there are specific rules and categories. But, Samās is more than just putting one word after another.
      Eg)1) kṛṣṇārjunau= Kṛṣṇaḥ ca Arjunaḥ ca
      (Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna)
      2) Pitāmbaraḥ= Pitām baram yasya saḥ
      (one who has worn yellow clothes)
      2) Saptadinaṃ= Saptanāṃ dinān samāhār iti
      (group of seven days)
      3) Sītāpatiḥ= Sītāyāḥ patiḥ
      (husband of mother Sitā)
      4) Haribhaktaḥ= harau bhaktaḥ
      (devotee of Lord Hari)
      5) Pankajaḥ= Panke jāyate iti
      (Lotus- the one who is born from mud)
      6)Khagaḥ= khe gacchati iti
      (bird- one who goes through the sky)

    Counting words in a language is weird. For example, in the SAOB Swedish Dictionary, it has 500 000 words, but I'm not sure how they count, because compounds are grouped with the word they're a compound of. Like "fotboll" (foot-ball) has its own entry, but "skolår" (school-year) does not, and appears as a compound for "skola" (school) despite the previous also being a compound of "fot" (foot).

      @@SuLokify Admittedly, German is easier to some because of it. In western slavic languages, we usually have the exact same compounds being used in direct translation. But ultimately, compounding is in every language. The thing about Indian is probably that someone just decided to keep on adding new words into dictionary, bcs rules allow it -- whereas other languages made non-flexible standards trying to prevent further derail of dialects from each other. Mind you, Austrian and German are barely even inteligible, but they decided on single language standard to teach in school, but that also means, that for people outside Vienna(which likely already has a majority speaking german by now), they only learn in what is basically a foreign language. -- at the end that does not make those Sanskrit words actually used by real people though. In Real world, everyone there is probably speaking in some dialect and dont utter a single word present in that dictionary outside of public offices anyway - just like we have it in Europe.

    the question of how many words has a language is actually quite interesting all all languages that allow compound words will have more than the dictionary states. in german you can just slap words together and will get a new word and with kanji you can create new meaning by merging the right radicals and then also put the kanji next to another

    9:16 Drew, the average language is a lot of loan words + a bunch it isn‘t known where they come from loan words + some we have forgotten that they are loan words loan words + some proper words probably building on foreign language words + a handful proper proper words. One should also note that OG loan words have at least traversed so many languages that it is hard to know who produced it the first time or if they have been produced multiple times or who loaned from whom. Not to forget the ‚intra-language loaning‘ between ‚dialects‘ and the constant subtle changes of words and their meanings and the double-loaning and and and.
    One could say it is a big LOAN-party.

      ​@@Velu0 You can understand with this example-
      1) If I want to say, "He, who has worn yellow garments", I can say in a full sentence as "pītaṃ aṃbaraṃ yasya saḥ".
      If I want to say it in one word, I would say "pītāmbaraḥ" ✅
      and not "PītaṃAṃbaraṃYasyaSaḥ" ❎. This is called samās. In this example, the type of samās used is bahuvṛīhi samās.
      2) And then there is sandhi, which is somewhat similar to merging, but not exactly merging :
      tathā + uktaṃ ≠ tathāuktaṃ ❎
      tathā + uktaṃ= tathoktaṃ ✅
      (Tathā= as per, uktaṃ= having said/ being said. Tathoktaṃ= as being said)
      This is done to make pronounciation easier. The "ā" at the end of "tathā" is kaṇthya (meaning it is pronounce by blocking the air from your throat by pointing the tongue towards the vellum) and the "u" in the beginning of "uktaṃ" is oṣthya (meaning you pronounce it by passing the air from your throat directly through your lips).
      To transition, from kaṇthya to oṣthya, you need to pause. So to make pronounciation smoother, you combine the vowels a (ā= a + a) and u to form the compound vowel o.

    The number of words, it depends how exactly those words are counted up...
    Trouble with counting up unique words is that it may leave out a lot from one language while count in a lot by the same principles. Eg agglutination (eg: boatswain), clitics, cases, grammatical genders, declarations, etc...
    For my own language, this alone (still excluding agglutination for example) gives over 150 possible intuitive derivative words per each unique root word (mother → mother+ly)... Throw in words that are derived from agglutination, and potential for dictionary size explodes near infinite.
    It also matters if two words with similar appearance and sound are counted as same word with different (and even conflicting) definitions that have independent etymologies. A reason why such comparison can only be done properly be counting up those words by definitions (and one definition still can have multiple, even tens, matching words). On top of that, phonetics should supercede visual apparence - how it is pronounced has higher importance than how it happens to appear in writing... And then there is etymology, etc, ...
