If Seo and ses are taken as stem.enlarging pleonastic (or diminutive ) suffixes, the base can
be derived from Sk. अक्षिगृह or अक्षिहर. 134. fafeffect ( v. 1 fafciento faz'fe' ) (3, 14 ) 'curds'
fefefefHaras (v. 1 ferito , (3, 30) - ibid.' PC. 37, 1, 4 has faffectes and 34, 11, 3 has faffefacts cf. feggiant (3, 29 ) cream of curds' (an:)
(7. Initial voicing There are only two cases, both of obscure origin and so equally plausibly explicable as instances of devoicing or of some other, not necessarilly phonogical, process. 135. higan (2, 95) “the Bimba creeper, Momordica
monadelpha'. #ICE (2, 39 ) 'the Bimba fruit'( 3 Sk.974).
Guj. घोलु presuposes गोल्हअं. 136. YA, 54 (6, 106 com., SH. 8, 4,161) 'to wander' (27).
(8) Post-nasal voicing
Against the general Prakrit trend to preserve unchanged post-nasal unvoiced stop, Sauraseni exhibits a tendency to voice it, if the cluster is -nt- (Pischel, § 275 ). This type of voicing is known to be a characteristic development in the dialects of the SindhPanjab area, 137. aneesi ( 7, 39 ) Siya's attendants' ( 4791: ).
This appears to be the same as वंकच्छा i. e. वक्राक्षाः * cross-eyed ones',
