vasu;sraMsu;dhvaMsv;anaDuhAn daH

वसुॱस्रंसुॱध्वंस्वनडुहां दः ONPANINI 82072

Replace with d द्, when they are padafinal, /anaDuh-, (and the s स्) of /vasu-enders, sraMs स्रंस्, dhvaMs ध्वंस्.

Exception to <6 sasajuSoruH, that would replace /vasu sraMs स्रंस् dhvaMs ध्वंस् with /ru.

Examples with /anaDuh- —

!**anaDudbhyAm अनडुद्भ्याम्

!**anaDudbhis अनडुद्भिस्

Examples with /vasu-enders —

**vidvas- विद्वस् n + /su OR /am
→ vidvas विद्वस् by svamornapuMs...
→ vidvad विद्वद् by this rule
→ **vidvat विद्वत् normalizing

!**vidvadbhyAm विद्वद्भ्याम्

**vidvadbhis विद्वद्भिस्

Examples with sraMs स्रंस् dhvaMs ध्वंस् —

**ukhAsrat उखास्रत् "fallen from the pan"

Why do we say "the s स् of"?

The /vasu-enders are unaffected when their last letter is not s स् —

vidvasu- m + /su
→ vidvans- विद्वन्स् + /su by ugidacAMs...
→ vidvAns- विद्वान्स् + /su by sAntamahat...
→ vidvAns विद्वान्स् by halGyAbbhyodIrgh...
→ !**vidvAn विद्वान् by saMyogAntasy...

vidvasu- m + /sambuddhi
→ vidvans- विद्वन्स् + /su by ugidacAMs...
→ vidvans विद्वन्स् by halGyAbbhyodIrgh...
→ **vidvan विद्वन् by saMyogAntasy...

In **vidvAn विद्वान् and **vidvan विद्वन् the /vasu affix has padafinal n न्, which is unaffected by this rule because it only eats up s स्, and unaffected by nalopaHprAt... because saMyogAntasy... worked. However, when the nounbase is neuter, it has padafinal s स् —

vidvasu- n + /su OR /am
→ vidvas- विद्वस् + /luk by svamornapuMs...
→ vidvad विद्वद् by this rule
→ !**vidvat विद्वत् normalizing

and also when it is /pada —

**vidvadbhis विद्वद्भिस्

**vidvatsu विद्वत्सु

Why "padafinal"?

!**vidvAMsau विद्वांसौ

**vidvAMsas विद्वांसस्
