Kātyāyana (16-40), Bṛhaspati (2.8-9) and Śukra also describe certain defects in the language. Śukra defines these defects as under:
• *anyārthaṁ* (carrying a different meaning)
• *arthahīnaṁ* (without meaning)
• *pramāṇāgamavarjitaṁ* (without proper evidence)
• *hīnāṁ* (laconic)
• *adhikaṁ* (excessive)
• *bhraṣṭaṁ* (corrupt).
