सन्लिटोर्जेः ONPANINI 73057

Replace ji जि with gi गि before /san and /liT.

Before /san —

ji जि + /san + /laT /tip → !**jigISati जिगीषति "wants to win"

Before /liT —

ji जि + /liT /tip → !**jigAya जिगाय "won"

Does this sUtra apply when jyA ज्या "become old" turns into ji जि by grahijyAvay...?

No, only ji जि "win" is meant here. So, there is no g ग् in —

jyA ज्या + /liT /jhi
→ jyA ज्या + jyA ज्या + /us by liTidhAtor...
→ ji जि + jyA ज्या + /us by liTyabhyAsasy...
→ ji जि + jy ज्य् + /us by Atolopa::...
→ !**jijyus जिज्युस् "they became old"

Shouldn't rule torli have turned sanliTorjeH सन्लिटोर्जेः into san~liTorjeH सन्ँलिटोर्जेः?

Actually, no. Because nalopaHprAt... should have erased the n न् before torli can mess with it.

Okay, then, shouldn't rule nalopaHprAt... have turned sanliTorjeH सन्लिटोर्जेः into saliTorjeH सलिटोर्जेः?

Yes. But saliTorjeH सलिटोर्जेः would be confusing.

Well, the deleted n न् of the pUSan पूषन् in sutra inhanpUSAry... sure is confusing. It's not like /pANini gives a damn about things being confusing.

Oopsie, ur Wright. I should have answered earlier "Yes. But saliTorjeH सलिटोर्जेः would be ambiguous".
