/e''' / एऽऽऽ

/e''' is the replacement of /iT' in the /laT /liT /luT /lRT.

It is made by Tita::Atman....

labh लभ् + /laT /iT'
→ labha- लभॱ + /e''' by Tita::Atman...
→ labhe लभे by atoguNe
→ !**labhe लभे "I get"

kR कृ + /lRT /iT'
→ **kariSya- करिष्यॱ + /e'''
→ **kariSye करिष्ये by atoguNe

It looks the same as /ez, the replacement of /liT /ta.

kR कृ + /liT /iT'
→ **cakR- चकृॱ + /e''' → **cakre चक्रे by ikoyaNaci

kR कृ + /liT /ta
→ **cakR- चकृॱ + /ez → **cakre चक्रे by ikoyaNaci

See bent laG, bent liT, bent lRT.

But in the /laG, /iT' stays —

labh लभ् + /laT /iT'
→ **alabha- अलभॱ /iT'
→ alabh अलभ् + e ए by atoguNe
→ !**alabhe अलभे "I got"

See bent laG.

It looks like rule atoguNe only replaces a अ + e ए in the case a अ + /iT of **labhe लभे above, and it never replaces a अ + o ओ because there are no o ओ affixes. So if /pANini had excepted /iT' from Tita::Atman..., then the atoguNe rule might have been shrunk to atoti अतोति, yes?

Yes, but the exception would take up more chanting space than the savings.
