Replace nexttolast a अ (with A आ before /JNit).

hole reread the ata::u page

This rule will not apply before a /taddhita, because of taddhiteSvac... >. It will however apply before tenses —

pac + /liT /tip or /mip → !**papAca "he / she / I cooked"

gam → !**jagAma "went"

vac + /liT /tip
→ **uvac- + /Nal because /Nal is not /kit
→ uvAc- + /Nal by this rule
→ !**uvAca "I / he / she said"

and before /sup endings -

paTh + /ghaJ (allowed by bhAve)
→ pATh + a by this rule
→ !**pATha- m "recitation"

and before /kRt affixes —

pac + /Nvul
→ pac + aka by yuvoranAkau
→ pAc + /Nvul by this rule
→ !**pAcaka- "a cook"

pac + /Ni → **pAci with /vRddhi by this rule

**pAci + /laT /tip
→ pAci + /zap + /tip by kartarizap
→ pAce + /zap + /tip by gbH
→ pAcay + /zap + /tip by ecoy
→ !**pAcayati "makes others cook"

See also **cakAra .

Before /Nal, if a root ends in A it gets /au, see **dadau . The roots that end in other vowels get /vRddhi by < acoJNiti. The ones that have nexttolast a get /vRddhi by this rule.

Why do we say "before /JNit"?

There is no /vRddhi before non-/JNit —

vac + /thal → !**uvacitha

vac + /thal → !**uvaktha

Wait, why is /iT optional in vac + /thal?

By RtobhAradv....

Shouldn't you turn FIRST vac into vAc before /Nal and then reduplicate the vAc to make uvAc ?

Oopsie. That's right. My bad. I'll fix that later.
