aut औत् ONPANINI 73118

After i इ u उ, replace /Gi with au औ.

This sUtra only applies to i इ u उ bases that are neither /nadI nor /ghi. Why? For /nadI bases, the previous rules replace /Gi with Am आम्, and for /ghi bases, the next rule erases the i इ u उ, and replaces /Gi with au औ.

So the only examples are /sakhi- and uncompounded /pati-, the only i इ u उ bases that are not /nadI and not /ghi —

/sakhi- + /Gi → **sakhyau सख्यौ

/pati- + /Gi → **patyau पत्यौ

What if /pati- is compounded?

Then accagheH > applies normally —

**vanaspatau वनस्पतौ
