deriv LSK ETT STT aSTA ALPH OLDHOMEPAGE NEWHOMEPAGE

/liT / लिट्

The /liT tense expresses past time by parokSeliT.

It is soft by liTca, so it never gets /zap or any /vikaraNa.

It reduplicates the root by liTidhAtor....

It takes quirky endings by parasmaipad..., liTastajhay..., and other rules.

Because of asaMyogAll... &c, the root gets fattening before some endings.

This tense is seldom used in medieval and modern Sanskrit, but commonplace in the epics.
