Compiler of this Dictionary, arrived in Ceylon, as a missionary of the Baptist Missionary Society, on 22nd September, 1853.

The first Sanskrit dictionary with western system of alphabetical order was the Sanskrit-English Dictionary compiled by Professor Horace Hayman Wilson and published in 1813.
Two Indian works, viz. the sabdakalpadruma, compiled by the Pandits of Sir Raja Radhakanta Dev and the Vacasptya compiled by Pandit Taranatha Tarkavacaspati, followed suit.
But the real predecessor of Monier Monier-Williams was the Sanskrit-German Dictionary, Sanskrit-Worterbuch, compiled by Otto Bohtlingk and Rudolph Roth, published from St. Petersburg, in twenty-four years, 1852-1875.
Though Monier-Williams acknowledged his indebtedness to the Sanskrit-Worterbuch, he worked for his dictionary on a plan of his own
