Alternatively, after i-ending, u- ending Masculine and Neuter words, there occurs no in place of nasi (suffix of Ablative Singular) and nas (suffix of Genitive Singular).
By applying Sutra 3/125, the short vowel does not become long:
(1) (i) Noun: Hari (Mas.): (Hari + nasi) = (Hari + no) = Harino (Ablative Singular)
(ii) (Hari + nas) = (Hari+ no) = Harino (Genitive Singular) (2) (i) Noun: Såhu (Mas.): (Sāhu + nasi) = (Sâhu+ no) = Sahuṇo (Ablative Singular) (ii) Pronoun: Amu (Mas.): Amuno (Ablative Singular) (3) (i) Noun: Sahu (Mas.): (Sahu + ñas) = (Sahu+ no): (Genitive Singular) (ii) Pronoun: Amuņo (Mas.): (Genitive Singular) (4) Noun: Vari (Neu.): (Vāri + nasi) = (Vāri + no) = Vāriņo (Ablative Singular)

Såhuņo
(Vāri + nas) = (Vāri + no) = Vāriņo (Genitive Singular) (5) (i) Noun: Mahu (Neu.): (Mahu + nasi) = (Mahu + no) = Mahuņo (Ablative Singular)
(ii) Pronoun: Amu (Neu.): Amuņo (Ablative Singular) (6) (i) Noun: Mahu (Neu.): (Mahu + nas) = (Mahu + no).
Mahuņo (Genitive Singular) (ii) Pronoun: Amu (Neu.) Amuņo (Genitive Singular) By applying Sūtra 3/43, long vowel becomes short: (7)(i)Gamaņi (Mas.): (Gāmaṇī+nasi) = (Gāmaṇī+ṇo)
