Jainam word explanation

• Jainam (जैनम्) generally means “the Jain” or “a Jain” — i.e., a follower of Jainism.
• Grammatically, it is the accusative singular of the word Jaina (one who follows Jainism) in Sanskrit, and is used as the object or descriptor in a sentence.

• There is no special Digambar/Shwetambar difference in the meaning of this word; the usage is the same across traditions.
