-XVIII. 18 ] RULES ON THE USE OF LANGUAGES 325

  1. Ṭa becomes ḍa in words such as bhaṭa, kuṭī and taṭa, and śa and ṣa always become sa, e.g. viṣa (visa) and śaṃkā (saṅkā).

  2. In words such as itara and the like ta standing not in the beginning of a word becomes an indistinctly pronounced da.$^1$ Ḍa in words such as vaḍavā and taḍāga becomes la.

  3. Ṭha in words such as śaṭha, pāṭha, pīṭhi and the like become ḍha, and na becomes ṇa everywhere in pronunciation.$^1$

  4. Pa [in it] changing into va, āpana becomes āvana. And except in case of words like yathā and tathā tha becomes dha.

  5. One is to know paruṣa as pharusa, for pa becomes pha [in it], and mṛga will be changed to mao while mṛta will also be mao.$^1$

  6. Au employed in words like auṣadha etc. will change to o, and ca in words such as pracaya, acira and acala etc. will change into ya.$^1$

  7. Thus [change] the sounds in Prakrit when they are not mutually connected (i.e. they are simple). Now I shall describe the change of conjunct sounds.

Conjunct consonants

  1. Śca, psa, tsa and thya change into (c)cha, bhya, hya and dhya into (j)jha, ṣṭa into ṭṭha, sta into ttha, sma into mha, kṣṇa and ṣṇa into ṇha, and kṣa into (k)kha.

11 (C.10; B.VII.12).

12 (C.11; B.XVII.13). $^1$ This indistinctly pronounced da is perhaps a spirantised da. Ag. thinks that it is somewhat like a la. (अस्पष्टो लघुप्रयत्न उच्चार्यः येन क्रमाड्कारस्य लकारच्छाया भवति यथा उदरं उलरं).

13 (C.12; B.XVII.14 f.n.). $^1$ B. reads the first hemistich as follows : वर्डनमते च भावे धकारवर्णोऽपि ढत्वमुपयाति and C. too differently. Dha in vardhana (i.e. in combination with ra) changes into ḍha.

14 (C.12b-13a, B.XVII.15).

15 (C.13b 14a B.XVII.16). $^1$ The word maa (maya) from mṛta as well as mṛga had its spirantised da reduced to ya-śruti which however was not shown in writting during the early days of this phonetic change (See IHQ. VIII. 1933, suppl. p. 14-15).

16 (C.14b-15a; BXVII.17). $^1$ This ya-śruti for ca did not probably at once lead to its graphic elimination.

17 (C.15b-16a; B.XVII.18).

18 (C.16b-18a; B.XVII.19.)
