Rule san says that san means "want to". Yet these three roots, with san, do not mean "want to"; they have unrelated meanings. Look --

This rule is an exception in advance to rule san. Therefore, these roots cannot have the ordinary meaning "want to" that san would give them. To mean wanting, say
Rule san says that san means "want to". Yet these three roots, with san, do not mean "want to"; they have unrelated meanings. And they stammer has a long vowel.
Only examples --
These are all bendy.
Again, these cannot get the senses "to want to honor", "to want to bind" etc that the san rule would have given them otherwise.
So, adding the affix

and is a root by sanAdyantA.
Being a root, this cikIrSa can get tenses --
cikIrSa + laT mahi →
and kRt affixes --
cikIrSa + a'' + su
yuyutsa + u' + jas →
These roots that end in san are called desiderative roots ( des in inria) by some, but sananta is less of a misnomer. Shorter too.
The verbs made from these roots are uncommon, even in the epics, but their a'' u' derivatives are often found.
The seven roots guptijkid and mAnbadhadAnzAn have a san affix that does not mean wisghing.

This rule has two parts:
(1) the twelve nouns mentioned in this rule, with Nic added, make roots with special meanings. Even though Nic, being a kRt affix, cannot be ordinarily added to nouns.
vi +
(2) the Nichclass roots always get Nic affix, with no change of meaning (see verb classes ).
Even though the Nic is always added, it is often deleted by other rules. For example, in
There are two sorts of Nic affix. The Nichclass Nic added by this rule, and the causative Nic added by hetumatica.
Inria tries to flag the Nichclass Nic verbs with "[10]", and the causative Nic verbs with " ca". But as the only way of knowing if the Nic was added because it means causing, or because the root is a Nichclass, is from the meaning of the verb in context, inria will sometimes fail and tell you that a [10] is a ca or that a ca is a [10]. So, be careful and don't let the machine make your thinking for you.
There are two sorts of
When we add Nic after roots that mean "see", "jump", "fall", "spin" we get roots that mean "make others see", "make others jump", "make others fall", "make others spin".

Incidentally -- the roots made with Nic all take zap by kartarizap, all are seT, and all are flattybendy.
Also incidentally -- the affix cvi is not in this list, and does not make roots, but it has a similar effect in the meaning. It turns frog into frogify.
