@endings after hanumat

/hanumat- is the name of a monkey-god — qq(see wikipedia on Hanuman).

masculine /matup bases get the same endings as /hanumat-. Examples: **gomat- गोमत् m "cattleowner", **sarasvat- सरस्वत् when m ("full of lakes").

All strong affixes turn mat मत् into mant मन्त् by ugidacAMs... —

/hanumat- + /au → !**hanumantau हनुमन्तौ

**gomat- गोमत् + /jas → !**gomantas गोमन्तस्

Weak affixes do'n do that —

**gomat- गोमत् + /Gas → !**gomatas गोमतस्

Rule atvasantasy... lengthens mat मत् before ordinary /su —

hanumatu- m + /su
→ hanumAts हनुमात्स् by atvasantasy...
→ hanumAnts हनुमान्त्स् by ugidacAMs...
→ hanumAnt हनुमान्त् by halGyAbbhyodIrgh...
→ hanumAn हनुमान् by saMyogAntasy...
→ !**hanumAn हनुमान्

**gomat- गोमत् m + /su → !**gomAn गोमान्, same steps.

But there is no lengthening before /sambuddhi /su —

/hanumat- + /sambuddhi → !**hanuman हनुमन् "hey hanumAn हनुमान्"

nor before the other strong —

/hanumat- + /jas → !**hanumantas हनुमन्तस् " s hanumAn हनुमान् and his friends"

**rAma- रामॱ + hanumat- हनुमत् + /au → rAmahanumantau रामहनुमन्तौ

**gomat- गोमत् m + /au → !**gomantau गोमन्तौ

/hanumat- + /am → !**hanumantam हनुमन्तम्

**gomat- गोमत् m + /am → !**gomantam गोमन्तम्

No special rules apply before the weak —

/hanumat- + /Gas → !**hanumatas हनुमतस् "of hanumAn हनुमान्"

/hanumat- + /zas → !**hanumatas' हनुमतस्ऽ " o hanumAn हनुमान् and his friends"

/hanumat- + /TA → !**hanumatA हनुमता "by hanumAn हनुमान्"

**gomat- गोमत् + /zas → !**gomatas' गोमतस्ऽ

/hanumat- + /bhis → !**hanumadbhis हनुमद्भिस् by jhalAJjazonte

Why doesn't nalopaHprAt... eat the n न् in **hanumAn हनुमान् and **hanuman हनुमन्?

Because first hanumAnts हनुमान्त्स् becomes hanumAnt हनुमान्त् by halGyAbbhyodIrgh..., then hanumAn हनुमान् by saMyogAntasy.... The /asiddha rule teaches that after we reach rule 82023 saMyogAntasy..., we cannot go back to 82007 nalopaHprAt....
