58 PAUMACARIU nivisa- (nimişa-) 8 6 6 etc., atthavaņa- (from Vatthavarastamaya-) 15 6 2, āśava- (aśrama-) 91 9, dharevi (dhārayāmi) 18 8 9, pari- harevim (pariharāmi) 18 8 9. For dropping of an intervocalic -m- see $30 d. $29. A reverse tendency of changing -v- to -m- urder the influence of a nasal sound in proximity, or even without such a condition is revealed by a) mi resulting from the particle vi follow- ing a word with the nasalized final syllable, as in kehi-mi 2 4 6. tinni-mi 4 9 2, suraha-mi 3 9 10, etc. (See Index Verborum under vi); b) stray instances like pungama- (pungava-) 1 1 10, pihimi- (prthvi-) 2 15 3, parimiya- (parivýta-) 2 11 8, 3 5 9, simira- (sivira-) 1181. $30. There are numerous cases of eliding an intervocalic v original or secondary mostly before u but occasi also before i and a : a) -v- is mostly, though not always, dropped before the -2- of the Nom. sing., sahāu 1 7 4 (but payāvu- 7 7 4); sau 1 11 2 (and sāvu 7 7 4); b) casually it is dropped before i as in kukai (kukavi-) 1 3 1, parāiya- (prāpta-) 161, paisai- (pravićati) 4 1 8, thera- (sthavirā-) 1 4 2,-adai- (atavi-) 3 8 5; c) before a it is omitted in payatta- (pravstta-) 5 15 9, bhuaņa- (bhuvana-) 6 1, tihuaņa- (tri- bhuvana-) 1 1 15, diyaha- (divasa-) 5 12 5, pariyattanti (= panā. vartante) 5 12 6, rūa- (rūpa-) 3 7 7 (against rūva 1 2 10), niyatthi- (from ni + Voas-) 14 10 4, suai (from Vsua-, Vsuva = Vsvap-) 1 10 8, lāyaṇņa- (lāvanya-) 1 13 6, akkhädaya- (akşavāțaka-) 4 11 2; -va- disappears in samasarana- 1 8 6, 3 4 8 (against samosarana 3 4 10); d) in a few cases such a -v- has resulted from an intervocalic -m- Jauņa-(Yamunā-) 12 4 3, sunswara- (sumsumāra-) 3 5 6, Tanaüha- (ranamukha-) 20 1; in nāum (nama) 2 17 8 and bhaumha 10 2 9 (as against bhauha- 14 3 10 and bhamuha 14 12 8) the dis- appearing -m- nasalizes the succeeding vowel. $31. A reverse tendency is to insert a va-śruti between two contiguous vowels to fill up the hiatus created by the elision of a stop, as Mandovari- (Mandodari-) 1 10 9, thovaya- (stoka- enl.) 16 87, uvara- (udara-) 1 10 3, 15 7 9, uvahi- (udadhi-) 3 3 7,6 10 9 etc., juvala- (yugala-) 2 17 9, dheņuva- (dhenu- enl.) 3 3 5, dhuva- (dhūta-) 7 14 8, dūva- (dūta-) 10 8 10, huvāsaņa- (hutāśana-) 20 4 9, vuvvuva- (budbuda-) 17 3 3, bhuva- (bhuja-) 1 10 7, 2 17 9, murava- (muraja-) 1 57, sivāla- (śrgüla-) 9 11 2, malliva- (mallikā-) 14 10 6. Viinalasūri's Paümacariya has several instances of vašruti: juva- (yukā-) 6 44, avalovaņi- (avalokani) 7 139, murava- (muraja-) 7 156 etc. $32. Some stray cases: Tilakesa- (Tilakakesā-) 5 6 1; muhala- (mukhara-) 1 15 7, somāla- (sukumāra-) 7 1 5, kalunaya- (karuna- ) enl.) 9 10_2, calana- (caraña-) 1 7 9; diyaha- (divasa-) 5 12 5, pāhāņa- (pāsāna-). 1 14 1. pāhiya (pasiya- from paśya-) 2 16 7. Loss of -va- in nisiyara- (nisitatara-) 4 1 is haplological. $33. We have several instances of the simplification of the conjunct with or without the compensatory lengthening of the pre- ceding vowels: a) vairāya- (vairīgya-) 29.2, 2. 10 3, kāosāya- (kāyotsarga-) 2 11 8, dhāi (dhātrī-) 7 3 3, dâhiņa- (dakşiņa-) 1 11 8, payāhiņa- (pradaksiņā-) 1 1 17, 6 13 3, şiddākhinnaya- (nirdák- sinya- enl.) 2 14 2, cāyāra (catvarah) 6 1 7 'sāmali- (salmali-) 3 1 9, säva- (sarva-) 1 8 10, 1 11 2, 7 7 4 nāvai (from navvai) 2 2 9, kāva (kāvya) 1 1 19, sąvadau (from V sampada-) 1 3 10, nīyāsaņa- (niyamsana-) 6 14 4; soma- (saumyā-) 2 2 6 päseya- (prasveda-) 1 13
