Delete n of root after znam.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 653

Roots with a nexttolast nasal sound, like bhanj hiMs, appear as bhaJj hiMs in modern dictionaries, but the dhAtupATha lists them as bhanj hins. So this rule can be reworded as --

' znamclass roots with a nexttolast nasal lose it when znam is added '

Examples --

bhanj + laT tip → bhanj + znam + ti →midaco bha + na + nj + ti bha + na + j + ti →coHkuH bhanakti "breaks"

Non- idit halanta roots (lose) nexttolast (nasal sound) before kGit.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 654

So, before a kGit affix, roots like sraMs(u) dhvaMs(u) aJcu raJj dambh will turn into sras dhvas ac raj dabh --

sraMs + kta srasta- "broken"

aJcu + kvin ac + kvin →vera ac''' "that leans to"

The root nand "rejoice, prosper" is unaffected by this rule because it is idit, ie, it has label i in the dhAtupATha. It appears there listed as --

(Du)nad(i) samRddhau 01.0070

and it gets num because of id-ito num dhAtoH. So we say --

nand + kta → nandita- "he rejoiced"

Small detail. The original rule does not say "delete nasal sound", it just says "delete n" (a trickle from the nalopa of the previous rule). That makes sense because the roots that are listed as sraMs raJj dambh in modern dictionaries appear as srans ranj danbh in the dhAtupATha. Listing them with n is fine, because the n will eventually turn into M J m by nazcA and anusvA.

This rule turns zAs into zis, then zis turns into ziS by zAsivasi.

Example before aG --

zAs + luG tip → azAs + tip → azAs + t''' →sartti azAs + aG + t azis + a + t →zAsi;vasi aziSat "he taught"

Example before kta, which is always kit and starts with t --

Example before tas, when rule sArvadhAtukamapit made it Git --

Counterexample before a vowel affix that is Git --

Some roots lose final nasal before serious kGitmmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 662

Some of those roots are yam ram nam gam han van, and the tanAdi (a.k.a uclass). There are others. Other nasal-ender roots, such as zam, are not affected by this rule.

Examples before kit affixes that start with t, which is serious --

han + kta hata- "was killed"

gam + kta gata- "gone; went"

gam + ktvA gatvA "after going"

man + ktin mati- "opinion"

tan + ktavatu m + su ta + tavat + s tatavAn "he extended"

Examples before tas tha (when they are Git by hard apit is Git ) --

han + laT tas hatas' "they two kill"

han + laT tha hatha "y'all kill"

If the kGit does not start with a serious, the nasal stays --

han + yak + karmaNi laT tas → hanyate "is being killed"

han + laT mas → hanmas "we kill"

And of course the nasal stays before the non- kGit --

han + laT tip → hanti "kills"

Optional exception to the previous rule. The roots that lose final nasal by the above rule before serious kGit, may keep it before lyap.

Example. gam root ordinarily loses m before all serious kGit, including ktvA and its replacement lyap --

AG + gam + ktvA → Agam + lyap →anudAttopadeza Aga + lyap →hrasvasyapi Agatya "came and"

Yet if there is a preverb, we may keep the m by this rule --

Exception to luGlaG. Vowel-starter roots get AT, not aT, before luG laG lRG.

This roughly means thatwe must replace the start vowel of the root with vRddhi.

Examples with i I starters. As i I are ik vowels, ATazca will work here --

The rules luGlaG and AD-aj-AdInAm above add aT or AT in front of a root that carries luG or laG. By this exception, aT AT won't be added when mAG is connected by sense to the verb.

mAG is used to dissuade or prohibit, as in --

u mA tapaH kArSIH "oh, don't practice austerities!"

mA ca roSaGM kRthAsH saumya mayi zatrunibarhaNa "and don't get angry with me, handsome warrior!"

mA tvamM bhiru vRkAd bhaiSIH | rakSiSyati dhanur mama "Don't be afraid of the wolf, kiddo, my bow will keep you safe."

In these examples, the luG verbs did not get luGlaG. The same verbs with no mA and with luGlaG would mean --

tapo 'kArSIH "you practised austerities"

roSam akRthAH "you got angry"

abhaiSIH "you were afraid"

Inria flags the luG that lost aT or AT not with aor as usual, but as inj ( injunctive). Which is a misnomer because the form is not used just for negative commands, but also for negative suggestions, advice, and blessings.
