{'sanskrit language': [2, 0, 1, 0], 'first grammarian': [2, 0, 1, 0], 'kalhana': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'kalidasa': [6, 0, 5, 6], 'panini': [4, 0, 5, 5], 'maitreyi': [2, 0, 0, 0]}
The correct answer is option 4, Panini. Panini is regarded as the first grammarian of the Sanskrit language. He is known for his work, the Ashtadhyayi, which is considered one of the most important texts in the field of linguistics. The Ashtadhyayi provides a comprehensive and systematic description of the Sanskrit language, including its grammar, syntax, and phonetics. Panini`s work laid the foundation for the study and development of Sanskrit grammar, and his rules and principles continue to be influential and relevant even today. Kalhana, Maitreyi, and Kalidasa are notable figures in Sanskrit literature and history, but they are not recognized as the first grammarian of the Sanskrit language.
