The /znam in the sUtra means verbbases built with /znam, like **yunaj- युनज् and **runadh- रुनध्. This sUtra deletes the a अ of /znam, and then n न् turns into a /savarNa of the next stop by nazcApadAnt... and anusvArasy... —

**yunaj- युनज् + /jhi → **yunaj- युनज् + /anti''' → **yuJj- युञ्ज् + /anti''' → **yuJjanti युञ्जन्ति

**yunaj- युनज् + /thas → **yuGk- युङ्क् + /thas → !**yuGkthaH युङ्क्थः

**yunaj- युनज् + /vas → !**yuJjvaH युञ्ज्वः

**yunaj- युनज् + /mas → !**yuJjmaH युञ्ज्मः

**runadh- रुनध् + /mas → **rundh- रुन्ध् + /mas → **rundhmas रुन्ध्मस्

How come the sUtra is not znam;asor al-lopaH श्नमसोरल्लोपः?

An old saying goes "go ask the sUtramaker". Use the saying only in desperate cases such as this one.
