procyate

 The Sanskrit word "procyate" (प्रोच्यते) is a verb that 

generally means "is declared," "is proclaimed," or "is 

stated," often used in classical texts to indicate 

something being pronounced or taught by an authority.

Meaning and Usage

Procyate is derived from the root verb "ūch" (उच्), meaning 

"to speak" or "to declare," combined with the prefix "pra-" denoting 

forward or forth. It is used in the present passive or middle voice 

form of the verb, typically translating as:

• "is declared"
• "is spoken"
• "is proclaimed"
• "is mentioned"

For example, in the Bhagavad Gita 18.19, the verse reads:

ज्ञानं कर्म च कर्ता च त्रिधैव गुणभेदतः प्रोच्यते गुणसङ्ख्याने यथावच्छृणु तान्यपि
Here, "procyate" indicates that knowledge, action, and the doer are 

declared or categorized according to the three gunas (qualities of nature) 

Shlokam
