of विघ्नकर्तृ) 850. It appears in the final position in a वर्णवृत्त each one of whose quarters closes with a रगण.
The semi-tatsama fem. instr. forms whilar (= 3294 ) 830 and aifan (=aamat) 83d also occur in an identical metrical position.
§ 45. Normalization of the stems.
i. Stems in ° , "3 02°37 are transferred to the standard °37-declension (a) either by the addition of the stem-enlarging suffix ( = "*: ari") as in 377774 ( TESTIFTE) 22a, 41 (F1f47) 22a, iga (q) 60d; Afere (fa) 159b; siga (8) 506, 317 (3495) 616, non (8) 192d; and the feminines in 4 like ufora 45d, etc. (see 41, (d)); or directly as in zire (instr. sing. from ve) 24a, jaft (instr. sing. from jqe) 53d, asfor (instr. sing. from a for) 203b, BA ( = 375) 158b, dag (= JAFT) 167a, 1890, afo (loc. sing. ap=) 1870, 189a, sqa (=4) 1956. Cf. Dingal locatives like a (from ae), af (from no).
ii. Under the influence of masc. z-declension, the fem. 27- and 5-stems take also og to form instr. sing. (see $$ 54, 56).
$ 46. Stem-forming suffixes.
i. The verbal determinative e signifying momentary and rapid action in a general way is represented in a few words : चमकउ 500, Vझलक (from ज्वल) in झलकिउ 106d, etc., थक्किय (from pur) 142c, 75* 1480, quiafa (from 7?) 1886.
ii. The suffix er forms adjectives in the sense of the present participle. We have fat 26a, 941, fafta 134a, faf 133a eto. (thrice), sfere 28a etc. (four times), Ralfse 46a, afery 506, fazlista 118a, TEST 133d ; RT 98c, affar A 219c (see § 22).
Action nouns in 37 (or re). Te 52b, Jure 1050, TA 113a, 324h 1136, °ge 173d, 7# (f.) 45d, afts (f.) 62b. .
iv. Patur forming agent (and action ) nouns appears casually. Aface cut 196, RT 131d, Foto 136a, forrado 158d, f. uefort 45d.
r. A fresh mode of forming agentives with the addition of 77 (= °F) has made its appearance: #99 226, 227 22d, Jeram 67c. cf. 1947 Ho. IV 412. These when enlarged become the precursors of the Hindi agentives in ger (e. g. gèet, fade).
Here we can scan the beginning of that analytical mode of breaking up the unitary basic idea of a verbal-root into two distinct elements : an action noun and the general verb signifying
