II. Morphological: (A) Declension :
(i) Deinflection of nominal forms-a):
Though it is true that the deinflection of nominal forms whenever it occurs in the VL is, in most cases, due to metrical considerations, it is a clear indication of the influence of Apabhramsa on the language of the VL. Even in Ardhamägadhi we come across sporadic instances of ceinflected nominal forms. In Apabhramsa, according to Hemacandra (VIII.4.344, 345), the terminations of the Nominative, Accusative and Genitive singular and plural are often dropped.

3. According to Pischel, FG 206 (p. 148) fg stands for fa (from - to rub), being changed to according to HS. VIII.1.186. Pischel says that fan would yield the form निहंसण in Prakrit. See,
