शब्दबलिमा हामी धनी छौ अनी प्रयोगमा चुइया, बर्ण बर्गिकरण ले जात को बर्गी करण गर्‍यो अनी ठुलो र स्यानो जात भए पछी तेही अनुसार शब्दको प्रयोग गरी आफु ठुलो र आरुलाई सानो बनाउने चलन आयो र तेही चलनको परिणति हो यो।

I might be wrong but I have realized "Namasakar" is used more often by Nepali while "Namaste" by Indians. I personally prefer to use Namaskar.

I think namaskar is like salutation to the elder and namaste is what replied by the person who's has beeen namaskaared to the person who namaskaar's.

Keep it simple.

When I No-more-stay in someone's house, I say 'Namaste'

When I No-more-Care for someone's company, I say, "Na mas kar"

'नमस्कार' बुढा-पखा ले भन्छन । जस्तै 'नमस्कार माड्साब' , बुढाहरुको साथीको बुढीलाई फोन गर्दा, जस्तै 'नमस्कार भाउजु, सञ्चै ? '

'नमस्ते' भनेको धेरैजस्तो भर्खर का 'पोठिला स्तन उम्रिदै गरेका अथवा परीपक्व नभैसकेका ठिटी हरुले भन्ने चलन छ । जस्तै , 'नमस्ते दाई ' , यो चाँही अली सेक्सी सुनिन्छ ।

According to yogic texts, namaste is more superior to namaskar. Namaste is for divinity while namaskar is for another person.

In brief, namaskar is composed of three aspects

(a) The prefix 'namah' means 'I salute';
(b) The root 'kr' means 'do'; and,
(c) 'Ghain' is simply a standard Sanskrit suffix.

So: Namah - kr + ghain = Namaska'r

Namaskar means: "I pay my salutations" and it is understood that the
object of the address is the Supreme Consciousness that lies within.

Namaste is different.

Namah = Pay Salutations, Te = You; the meaning then is I salute You.

And the "You" refers to the Supreme Consciousness - not a human being.
That is why in various yogic traditions, namaste is only meant to be
done to the Divine Entity, whereas namaskar is for paying salutations to
the Supreme within another person.
