nivisa- (nimiṣa-) 8 6 6 etc., atthavana- (from Vatthava astamaya-) 15 6 2, aśava- (asrama-) 9 1 9, dharevi (dhārayāmi) 18 8 9, pariharevim (pariharāmi) 18 8 9. For dropping of an intervocalic -msee §30 d.
$29. A reverse tendency of changing v- to -m- under the influence of a nasal sound in proximity, or even without such a condition is revealed by a) mi resulting from the particle vi following 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(pṛthvi-) 2 15 3, parimiya- (parivṛta-) 2 11 8, 3 5 9, simira- (sivira-) 11 8 1.
$30. There are numerous cases of eliding an intervocalic v original or secondary mostly before u but occasionally also before i and a: a) -v- is mostly, though not always, dropped before the -uof the Nom. sing., sahau 1 7 4 (but payāvu- 7 7 4); sau 1 11 2 (and savu 7 7 4); b) casually it is dropped before i as in kukai (kukavi-) 1 3 1, paraiya- (prapta-) 1 6 1, paisai- (pravisati) 4 1 8, thera(sthavira-) 1 4 2, -adai- (aṭavi-) 3 8 5; c) before a it is omitted in payaṭṭa- (pravṛtta-) 5 15 9, bhuana- (bhuvana-) 6 1, tihuana- (tribhuvana-) 1 1 15, diyaha- (divasa-) 5 12 5, pariyattanti (= paravartante) 5 12 6, rua- (rupa-) 3 7 7 (against ruva 1 2 10), niyatthi(from ni + Vvas-) 14 10 4, suai (from Vsua-, Vsuva == Vsvap-) 1 10 8, layanna- (lavanya-) 1 13 6, akkhaḍaya- (akṣavāṭaka-) 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-: Jauna-(Yamuna-) 12 4 3, sumsuara- (sumsumāra-) 3 5 6, ranauha- (ranamukha-) 20 1; in naum (nama) 2 17 8 and bhaumha 10 2 9 (as against bhauha- 14 3 10 and bhamuha 14 12 8) the disappearing -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 8 7, uvara- (udara-) 1 10 3, 15 7 9, uvahi- (udadhi-) 3 3 7, 6 10 9 etc., juvala- (yugala-) 2 17 9, dhenuva- (dhenu- enl.) 3 3 5, dhuva(dhūta-) 7 14 8, duva- (duta-) 10 8 10, huvasana- (hutāśana-) 20 4 9, vuvvuva- (budbuda-) 17 3 3, bhuva- (bhuja-) 1 10 7, 2 17 9, murava- (muraja-) 1 5 7, sivāla- (śṛgāla-) 9 11 2, malliva- (mallikā-) 14 10 6.
Vimalasuri's Paümacariya has several instances of vaśruti: juvā- (yukā-) 6 44, avalovani- (avalokani) 7 139, murava- (muraja-) 7 156 etc.
§32. Some stray cases: Tilakesa- (Tilakakeśā-) 5 6 1; muhala(mukhara-) 1 15 7, somala- (sukumāra-) 7 1 5, kalunaya- (karuna- ) enl.) 9 10 2, calana- (carana-) 1 7 9; diyaha- (divasa-) 5 12 5, pāhāṇa- (pāṣāna-) 7 14 1. pahiya (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 preceding vowels: a) vairāya- (vairagya-) 2 9 2, 2 10 3, kaosāya(kayotsarga-) 2 11 8, dhai (dhātrī) 7 3 3, dahina- (dakṣina-) 1 11 8, payahina- (pradakṣinā-) 1 1 17, 6 13 3, niddakhinnaya- (nirdāksinya- enl.) 2 14 2, cayara (catvaraḥ) 6 1 7 samali- (salmali-) 3 1 9, sava- (sarva-) 1 8 10, 1 11 2, 7 7 4 navai (from navvai) 2 2 9, kāva (kāvya) 1 1 19, savaḍau (from V sampaḍa-) 1 3 10, nīyasana(niyamsana-) 6 14 4; soma- (saumyā-) 2 2 6 paseya- (prasveda-) 1 13
