ek%Aco dve prathamasya ONPANINI 61001
Replace the first onevowel part with two.mmmmmmmmm ^ M+ C+ 532

Sometimes, we have to " reduplicate" roots, that is, we replace the first part of the root with two of the same. The "first part" of a root is everything up to the first vowel. Examples --

The first part of yudh is yu

so "reduplicate yudh" means "replace yudh with yu + yudh"

The first part of nI is nI

so we replace nI with nI + nI

The first part of ad is a

so we replace ad with a + ad

(See also the exceptions below, ajAderdvi and nan;d;rAssaMyo.)

We reduplicate when the rules liTidhA sanyaGoH zlau caGi below say so. In other words, whn the root is before the affixes liT san yaG zlu caG.

For instance, when rakS "protect" is before a liT affix, rule liTidhA replaces its ra with rara --

rakS + liT tip → rakS + Nal →liTidhA rarakS + Nal → rarakSa "he protected"

(But double) the second (onevowel part) of a vowelstarter.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 533

Exception to ekAcodve. The roots that start with a vowel and have at least two vowels replace their second one-vowel part with two.

Example. The root aTiSa means "be about to wander" and starts with a vowel. When it reduplicates, we change --

a Ti Sa a Ti Ti Sa → aTiTiSa "want to wander"

as in --

aTiSa + laT tip aTiTiSati "he wants to go walkabout"

See exception nandrA right below.

But not the n d r b that start a cluster.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 534

Exception to ajAderdvi. If the second part of a vowel-starter root starts with n d r b plus other consonants, we don't reduplicate that n d r b, but just the rest of the second part.

Examples. The roots undiSa and Urnu have second parts ndi rnu. According to the previous rule we would have replaced ndi with two ndi and rnu with two rnu. But this exception says that we replace one di with two di and one nu with two nu --

u ndi Sa u n di di Sa → undidiSa

U rnu U r nu nu → Urnunu →Natvam UrNunu

As in --

und + san + laT tip →sanyaGoH undidiSa + tip undidiSati "he wants to wetten"

Urnu + Nal →liTidhA Urnunu + Nal →acoJNiti Urnunau + a →ecoya UrnunAva →Natvam UrNunAva "he hid"

KAZIKA (laghu) acaH parAH saMyogAdayo nadarA dvir na bhavanti. nuzabdasya dvitvam. UrNunAva. UrNunuvatuH. UrNunuvuH.

The root undiSa means "want to wetten" and comes from und "wetten" + san.

The original rule does not mention b, but it is added by a vArttika, so that we get ubjijisati "wants to press down" from ubj "press down, opress".

When we replace one thing with two by the above rules, the first copy is called the stammer.

stammered are both.mmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 536

When we replace one part of a root with two by the above rules, the new root is a stammered.

Example. When ekAcodve replaces root pac with papac, by making one pa into two pa,

the stammer is the first pa

and the stammered is papac

There are two sorts of stammered --

(1) Those made by this rule (such as papac).

(2) Those mentioned in the next rule, jakSityA (such as jAgR).

jakSa~ jAgR daridrA cakAsR zAsu dIdhIG vevIG (are stammered).mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 537

These seven special roots, called jakSAdi roots, are stammered just because this rule says so, even though they weren't made by reduplicating other roots.

All seven of them are lukclass.

Being a stammered makes rule adabhyastAt work. Examples --

jAgR + laT jhi jAgR ( stammered ) + ati''' →ikoyaNaci jAgrati "they are awake"

jAgR + laT tip →jAgrovi jAgarti "is awake"

zAs + laT jhi zAs ( stammered ) + ati''' →adabhyastAt zAs + ati''' → zAsati "they command"

zAs + laT tip → zAsti "he commands"

Being stammered also prohibits the num from nAbhyastAccha. So we say daridratam "(him) that is poor", not daridrantam --

daridratamM brAhmaNamM pazyAmi "I can see that the brahmin is poor"

Even though these seven are stammered, they have no stammer, because they do not come from reduplicating anything else. Therefore, liTidhA does work on them --

jAgR + Nal jajAgAra "he woke up"

KAZIKA abhyastam iti vartate. jakSa ity ayaM dhAtuH ityAdayazca anye SaT dhAtavaH abhyasta-saMjJA bhavanti. seyaM saptAnAM dhAtUnAm abhyasta-saMjJA vidhIyate. jakSa bhakSahasanyoH ityataH prabhRti vevIG vetinA tulye iti yAvat. jakSati. jAgrati. daridrati. cakAsati. zAsati. dIdhyate, vevyate ityatra abhyastAnAm AdiH ityeSa svaraH prayojanam. dIdhyat iti ca zatari vyatyayena sampAdite n' .AbhyastAc chatuH iti numaH pratiSedhaH.

You might be asking yourself why the rule is not worded as jakSityAdayasH sapta. Thing is, pANini forgot about vevIG. Aliquando bonus dormitat Homerus, as we say in the South.

liTi dhAtor an-abhyAsasya ONPANINI 61008
Before liT, ( reduplicate) stammer-less root.mmmmmmmmm ^ M+ C+ 538

Roots reduplicate before liT. Unless they are already reduplicated.

Examples --

pac + liT tip → pac + Nal →ata::upa pAc + Nal pApAca →hrasvaH papAca "he cooked"

kSip + Nal →puganta kSep + Nal kSekSepa →halAdizzeSaH kekSepa →hrasvaH kikSepa →kuhozcuH cikSepa "threw"

vac + Nal →ata::upa vAc + a vA + vAc + a →liTyabhyAsa uvAca "said"

Even though the jakSAdi are stammered roots, they were never reduplicated, so they are stammerless and this rule does work on them --

jAgR + Nal →acoJNiti jAgAr + Nal jAjAgAr + a →hrasvaH jajAgAra "woke up"

Notice that the root never gets zap za etc before liT affixes. That's because kartarizap, tud'-AdibhyaH zaH etc. only work before hard, and liT replacers are soft .

See also exception kAspratyayA.

Why do we say "unless they are already reduplicated"? The root nu "shout", with yaGluk added, makes nonU (reduplicated by sanyaGoH), which is also a root. When adding liT to this root, liTidhA will not work, so the perfect is --

nonU + liT Nal →acoJNiti nonau + Nal →ecoya nonAva

as in

kAmi + luG tip acIkamat

narti + luG tip anInRtat

cori + luG tip acUcurat

nAyi + luG tip anInayat

The caGi reduplication has some peculiarities --

every vowel except u U reduplicates as i, by sanvalla

The Nic affix disappears by NeraniTi,

the root vowel shortens by NaucaGyu,

and the vowel of the stammer is often long -- I or U by sanvalla sanyataH dIrgholaghoH.

lyapi ca ONPANINI 61041
( veJ gets no stretching) before lyapmmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 550

Exception to vacisvapi. lyap is kit because it replaced ktvA.

Example --

pra + veJ + lyap →Adeca_u pravAya "after starting to weave"

KAZIKA veJaH ity anuvartate. lyapi ca parto veJaH samprasAraNaM na bhavati. pravAya. upavAya. pRthagyogakaraNam uttar%Artham.

vyaz ca ONPANINI 61043
vyA (is not stretched before lyap)mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 552

Exception to vacisvapi, that would have stretched vyeJ "hide" because lyap is kit.

Example --

pra + vye + lyap →Adeca_u pra + vyA + lyap pravyAya "after starting to hide"

KAZIKA lyapi ity eva. vyeJ saMvaraNe ity etasya dhAtoH lyapi parataH samprasAraNaM na bhavati. pravyAya. upavyAya. yoga-vibhAgaH uttar%ArthaH.

vibhASA pareH ONPANINI 61044
(vyA stretches) optionally after pari (before lyap).mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 553

So ordinarily vacisvapi, because of previous rule, will not stretch the vyA that comes from vyeJ --

pari + vyA + lyap →Adeca_u parivyAya "after wrapping"

But if we take this option --

pari + vyA + lyap →vacisvapi pari + vi + ya →halaH parivIya "after wrapping"

KAZIKA lyapi ca vyaz ca iti anuvartate. parer uttarasya vyeJ ity etasya dhAtoH lyapi parataH vibhASA samprasAraNaM na bhavati. parivIya yUpam, parivyAya. samprasAraNe kRte parapUrvatve ca hrasvasya iti tuka prApnoti, sa halaH 64002 iti dIrghatvena paratvAd bAdhyate.

Ad eca upadeze '-ziti ONPANINI 61045
dhAtupATha ec to A unless before zit.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 554

The roots that end in an ec in the dhAtupATha, like gai and so, replace it with A before all affixes except the zit affixes.

Examples --

gai + tumun gAtum "to sing"

gai + kta gA + kta →ghumAsthAgA gIta- "sung, song"

Counterexamples before zit --

gai + zap + tip →ecoya gAyati "he sings"

gai + zatR → gAyat- "singing"

In other words, the root is actually gA, but it is listed as gai in the dhAtupATha just to show tat gA + zap adds up to gAya.

This rule does not work before ez. By zit, pANini meant "affixes that have label z at the start", not just "affixes that have label z".

sRji;dRzor jhaly am akiti ONPANINI 61058
sRj dRz get a(m) before akit seriousmmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 555

"Get a(m)" means that their R turns into ra (see midaco, ikoyaNaci).

Examples --

dRz + tumun dRaz + tum →ikoyaNaci draz + tum →vrazcabhrasja draS + tum →STunA draSTum "to see"

dRz + tRc dRaz + tR draSTR- "seer"

dRz + luG tip →luGlaG adRz + tip → adRz + sic + tip adRaz + s + tip →ikoyaNaci adraz + s + tip → adraz + s + t''' →sicivRddhiH adrAz + s + t → adrAz + s + It''' →vrazca;bhrasja adrASsIt →SaDhoHkassi adrAkSIt "saw"

dRz + lRT tip → dRz + sya + tip dRaz + sya + ti →ikoyaNaci draz + syati →vrazca;bhrasja draSsyati →SaDhoHkassi drakSyati "he will see"

Before kit, we get neither this rule nor puganta --

dRz- + kta → dRSTa-

and before akit non- serious, we get puganta as usual --

dRz + lyuT →yuvoranAkau dRz + lanaT →puganta darzana- "seeing"

dRz + kvip does not get a in devadRgbhyAm "with two god-seers". That's because this rule mentions sRj and dRz explicitly, and rules that mention particular roots work only before verb affixes, not before noun affixes .

dhAtvAdeH SaH saH ONPANINI 61064
Rootstarter S to s.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 557

In other words: when the dhAtupATha shows a root that starts with S, the real root starts with s. Such a root is said to be a sa-root. The dhAtupATha lists these roots with S just to let us know that rule upasargAt works on them.

Examples. The roots sah "endure" and sic' "sprinkle" are Sa-roots, because the dhAtupATha lists them as Sah 01.0988 and Sic 06.0170. But they actually start with s, not S --

Sah + laT ta sah + ta sahate "endures"

Sic + laT tip sic' + tip sic + za + ti →zemucAdInAm siJcati "sprinkles"

abhi + Sic + laT tip abhi + sic' + tip abhi + sic + za + ti →zemucAdInAm abhisiJcati →upasargAt abhiSiJcati "consecrates as king"

No naH ONPANINI 61065
(Rootstarter) N to n.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 558

The Nopadeza roots ("the ones taught with Na") are those that start with N in the dhAtupATha, such as nI "lead" (this nI appears listed as NI(G) in the dhAtupATha).

This rule teaches that we must always replace the initial N of a root with n. Example --

NI(G) + kta nI + ta → nIta- "was led"

In other words: this rule says that no roots actually start with N, an that those that appear to start with N in the dhAtupATha, actually start with n. They are listed with N just to tell us that rule upasargAdasamAse 'pi Nopadezasya works on them.

All of the n-starter roots are Nopadeza except nRtI~ nandi nardi nakka nATi nAthR nAdhR.

So we say parinRtyati "dances around" but pariNayati "leads around".

Examples --

knUy + kta knUta- "already wet"

knUy + Nic + laT tip → knUy + puk + Nic + tip knU + p + Nic + tip knopayati "wettens"

But that y stays before val letters, such as a of zap or y of yak --

knUy + zap + te''' → knUyate "it is wet"

knUy + yak + te''' → knUyyate "moisture happens"

ver apRktasya ONPANINI 61067
One-letter vi-affixes lose v.mmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 560

These are some of the affected vi affixes --

kvip kvin Nvi cvi

In these affixes the v is not a label, and all the other letters are labels.

So, these four lose v by this rule.

Example --

indrasya + ji + kvip →supodhA indra + ji + (k)v(ip) →hrasvasyapitikRtituk indrajitv indrajit- "defeater of indra"

This rule does not affect the v of the vi-affixes (k)vi(n) and (k)vi (two uNAdi affixes), because those are two-letter affixes --

dR + kvin → darvi- "wooden, a ladle"

jAgR + kvi → jAgRvi- "watchful, awake, kindled"

hal;Gy;Abbhyo dIrghAt su;ti;sy;apRktaM hal ONPANINI 61068
su s''' t''' (to lopa) after hal or long GI Ap.mmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 561

Examples of su to lopa after hal --

suhRd- + su suhRd →beforepause suhRt "friend"

rAjan- + su →sarvanAmasthAnecA rAjAns rAjAn →nalopaHprA rAjA "king"

Examples of su to lopa after GI Ap --

kukkuTI- + su kukkuTI "chicken"

sItA- + su sItA "pn"

In this situation the su does not become lopa, because zrI-, a rootnoun, has no GI and does not end in a consonant --

zrI- @f + su → zrIs "glory"

Examples of t''' s''' to lopa after hal ---

dviS + laG tip → aT + dveS + t''' → adveSt adveS →jhalAJjazonte adveD →beforepause adveT "he hated"

dviS + laG sip → aT + dveS + s''' → adveSs adveS →jhalAJjazonte adveD →beforepause adveT "you hated"

Why does the rule say " long"? Because otherwise this rule would work when gostri has shortened the GI or Ap. But the rule must not work there --

ati + khaTvA + su →gostriyor atikhaTva + su → atikhaTvas "one that no longer needs a bed"

eG;hrasvAt sambuddheH ONPANINI 61069
After eG and short, (erase) calling.mmmmmmmmm ^ M+ C+ 562

Examples after eG --

sItA- + @calling →sambuddhauca sIte + s sIte "hey sItA"

kapi- + @calling →hrasvasyaguNaH kape + s kape "hey monkey"

guru- + @calling →hrasvasyaguNaH guro + s guro "hey teacher"

Examples after short --

rAma- + @calling → rAma "hey rAma"

nadI- + @calling →ambArtha nadi + s nadi "hey river goddess"

vadhU- + @calling →ambArtha vadhu + s vadhu "hey young lady"

Counterexample. subhrU- is not a nadI, but an uvaG, so it has long U (which is neither eG nor short) before the calling --

subhrU- + @calling → subhrUs "hey cutie"

Poets will sometimes say subhru, however, which sux. Even kAlidasa has --

yadi tu tava samAgame tathaivamM prasarati subhru tataH kRtI bhaveyam "if the night could pass so slowly when I'm with you, cutie, I'd be happy"

Back to rules that delete the calling .

hrasvasya piti kRti tuk ONPANINI 61071
short gets tuk before pit kRt.mmmmmmmmm ^ M+ C+ 563

In more words, the kRt affixes with p label, such as lyap kyap kvip, make the roots that end in a short get t.

Examples with lyap --

ni + kR + lyap ni + kR + t + ya → nikRtya "humiliates and"

pra + stu' + ktvA → pra + stu' + lyap prastutya "after praising in verse"

adhi + iG + lyap → adhI + lyap adhI + t + ya → adhItya "after studying"

Examples with kyap --

iN' + kyap itya- "which has to be gone to"

stu + kyap stutya- "praiseworthy"

Examples with kvip --

agnim + ci + kvip agnicit- "fire-pileupper, arranger of the (sacrificial) fire"

indram + ji + kvip indrajit- "the one who defeated indra"

pustakam + bhR + kvip pustakabhRt- "book-carrier (name of sarasvatI)"

The kvip enders do not get any feminine affix. The kyap-enders get ajAdyataSTAp.

taddhita affixes do not trigger this rule --

paTu- "sharp" + tarap → paTutara- "sharper"

This rule got to work on adhI above because Satva;tuko says that tuk rules, like this one, are blind to the changes made by akassa etc. Therefore this rule "thought" that adhI ends with short i, and added the t.

saMhitAyAm ONPANINI 61072
Not before pause.mmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 564

headline. The next rules (down to 61157) won't work before a pause.

Example. Rule ikoyaNaci below teaches "I to y before vowels". But because of this headline, this ikoyaNaci rule won't work on the I that is before a pause that in turn is before a vowel. So, when we join the words devI and uvAca to make a sentence, we have two options --

either we make no pause between the words and ikoyaNaci works --

devyuvAca "The Queen said."

or we make a pause and the ikoyaNaci does not work, even though I is before a vowel --

devI uvAca "The Queen. (pause). Said."

ikoyaNaci will work compulsorily when adding affixes --

kukkuTI- + au →ikoyaNaci kukkuTyau

because pausing midword is ungrammatical.

( short gets tuk when in saMhitA) before ch.mmmmmmmmm ^ M+ C+ 565

We can reword this rule into --

" ch to cch after short "

Examples --

gam + laT tip → gam + zap + tip →iSugami gachati gatchati →stozzcu gacchati "goes"

chid + us →liTidhA cichidus citchidus →stozzcu cicchidus "they cut"

sas + chinatti →etattado sa + chinatti sat chinatti →stozzcu sac chinatti "he cuts"

atra + chAtraH atrat chAtraH →stozzcu atrac chAtraH "The student is here"

You may spell the last two as sa cchinatti and atra cchatraH if you like. But inria will expect you to type sacchinatti, atracchatraH.

This rule may be said to be completely useless nowadays.

* In times of pANini, there was a difference in sound between mA chaitsIH and mA cchaitsIH.

* But nowadays (and most likely since the middle ages) everybody says only cch, never ch, no matter if the spelling looks like ch or cch. The sound of the letter ch (and of cch) is quite like the Bengali ch, which takes as much time to say as any two-consonant cluster.

However, you have to know the rule in order to get the right spellings. gacchati must be spelled with cch nowadays; the medieval custom of sayin gacchati and spelling gachati is no longer allowed.

My students are reminded that even though spellings such as hiraNyagarbho bhagavAn eSa chandasi suSTutaH are common in the epics, they still will get punished in the written test if they don't spell eSa cchandasi.

sA cchinatti "she cuts"

sA chinatti "she cuts"

Nowadays everybody pronounces ch and cch as cch, so this rule is useless, or is just a spelling rule --

Before vowel, we replace i u R L, and their long versions, with y v r l respectively.

Examples with i I to y --

dadhi + atra dadhy atra "here's the curds"

kukkuTI + atra kukkuTy atra "here's the hen"

Examples with u U to v --

madhu + atra madhv atra "there's honey here"

vadhU- + jas vadhvas "young women"

Example with R to r --

eco 'y;av;Ay;AvaH ONPANINI 61078
ec to ay av Ay Av (before vowel).mmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 570 sandhi

The ec letters are e o ai au. Because of rule respectively, this rule means --

" Replace

e with ay

o with av

ai with Ay

au with Av.

before all vowels ".

Examples.

ne + zap + tip nay + zap + tip → nayati "leads"

plo + zap + ta plav + zap + ta →Tita_A plavate "jumps"

saha nau avatu → saha nAvavatu "may he protect both of us together"

When the ec is a wordfinal e o, and the next word starts with a, this rule will not work because of the exception eGaHpa q.v.

When the ec is wordfinal and eGaHpa does not apply, the y v can either stay unchanged --

tasmai + avadam tasmAyavadam

nau + avatu nAvavatu

or be replaced with a hiatus by the optional rule lopazzA --

tasmai + avadam tasmAyavadam →lopazzA tasmA_avadam

nau + avatu nAvavatu →lopazzA nA_avatu

In spite of that, you will find no optionality in written books. As far as I know, in writing, rule lopazzA never works on Av -

nau + avatu nAvavatu "may He protect us"

and always works on ay av Ay --

te + ime tay + ime →lopazzA ta_ime "those same ones"

gAm + tasmai + adadat gAnM tasmAy adadat →lopazzA gAnM tasmA adadat "gave him a cow"

Warning. You WILL hear arjunayuvAca, even though it is always spelled arjuna_uvAca.

Addition to ecoya, which replaces e ai o au before vowels. The o and the au will also be replaced before affixes that start with y.

Example before Nyat, a kRt affix --

yu + Nyat →acoJNiti yau + ya yAvya- "that should be excluded"

Example before Nya, a taddhita. The taddhita do not trigger ( acoJNiti, but do trigger taddhiteSva --

(o au) of root (to av Av before y -affix) only if that affix made the o au.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 572

Exception to vAntoyi above. If the o au belongs to a root, we replace it with av Av only before the y-affix that made the o au, like here --

lU + yat →hardsoft lo + yat lavya- "could be reaped"

but not before other y-affixes, like this yamAna here --

lU + yamAna + iJ →taddhiteSva lau + yamAna + i →yasyetica lauyamAni- "son of lUyamAna"

Here the U turned into au because of the iJ affix (see taddhiteSva), and not because of the yamAna affix. So we get no Av change before yamAna.

kSayya- and jayya- only mean "-ible".mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 573

These are built from kSi + yat and ji + yat. Only examples --

kSi + yat →hardsoft kSeya- kSayya- "destructible"

ji + yat → jeya- jayya- "conquerable"

When the meaning of yat is not "can be", this rule does not work --

kSi + yat →hardsoft kSeya- "should be destroyed"

ji + yat → jeya- "should be defeated"
