Madhyavyutpatti (Wylie: sGra sbyor bam po gñis pa) is the name of a Sanskrit-Tibetan lexicon.[1]
These two scrolls were used as reference text for translating Sanskrit sutras into Tibetan language during Trisong Detsen's rule of Tibet during the early dissemination times. They were used along with Mahavyutpatti, which standardized the translation rules along with its pronunciation from various Sanskrit scrolls or exposition of sutra, vinaya, abhidharma, and even mantras and dharanis.[citation needed]
