&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;In Indic linguistics, the term &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;absolutive&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is sometimes used as a synonym of [[converb]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Polysemy ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The term &amp;#039;&amp;#039;absolutive&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is also used for a grammatical case (see [[absolutive case]]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Synonyms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[gerund]]: this term is more widely used, e.g., by Tikkanen (1987).&lt;br /&gt;
* [[conjunctive participle]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[converb]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See [[converb]] for more synonyms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Origin ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Schlegel (1820) first called the Sanskrit converb an &amp;quot;absolute participle&amp;quot;, apparently to contrast it with the Latin and Greek [[participium conjunctum]], which agrees with an argument of the main clause in gender, number and case, while the Sanskrit converb does not show any agreement. The term &amp;#039;&amp;#039;absolutive&amp;#039;&amp;#039; originated around the middle of the 19th century in anti-Boppian German-speaking circles (see Tikkanen 1987:37 and Haspelmath 1995:46 for discussion; Franz Bopp used the term &amp;#039;&amp;#039;gerund&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
