13. In this section and the next, only the parts of the verses which contain grammatical riddles will be quoted and considered. The verbal sequence forming the answer to the full riddle will be given because it serves as a hint to direct the reader in cases where there could be several possibilities, but it will not be extensively explained: the more questions, the more problems, a detailed discussion of which would lead to unnecessary digressions.

20. Ct.: tvar samudalasaḥ samullasitavān athava sam sämastyena ut präbalyena alasaḥ śabditavän tus hras las sabde las ity asya rupam; but las with this meaning is not recorded in Palsule s.v. sabde.
21. This is perhaps what is actually meant by the reading kidrvikam found in two mss. of the AC.
22. Translations of Pan. are based on S. C. Vasu, The Ashṭādhyayi of Panini, 1891, Reprint Motilal Banarsidass, 1962 and O. Böhtlingk, Panini's Grammatik. Leipzig,
1887.
