A MANUAL OF
वहुमुह (वधूमुख), वहुवर (वधूवर), पहावागरणाई (प्रश्नव्याकरणानि); नायाधम्मकहाओ (ज्ञातधर्मकथाः).
51. In compounds an अनुस्वार is sometimes inserted. Thus we have निरयंगामी (निरयगामिन् ), उडुंगारव (ऊर्ध्वगौरक), दीहंगारव (दीर्घगौरव), रहस्संगारव (हस्वगौरव ). . This अनुस्वार, if followed by a vowel, is turned into 7. Thus we have अन्नमन (अन्य + अन्य), दोहमद्धा (दीर्घ + अध्वा), गोणमाईणि (गौण + आदीनि), सामाइयमाइयाई (सामायिक + आदिकानि). आहारमाईणि (आहार + आदीनि), जिणवरमुदिड (जिनवर + उद्दिष्ट), जोग्वणमुदए ( यौवन + उदये), अदुक्खमसुहा (अदुःख + असुख), अजहण्णमणुक्कोस (अजघन्य + अनुत्कर्ष), आयारमहा (आचारार्थीय). Similarly र too is in some places inserted in a word as in धिरत्थु (धि + अत्थु, i. e., धिग् + अस्तु). ___. 52. Sometimes a vowel in the preceding word is lengthened even though the two words do not form a compound. Thus we have जामेव ( यमेव, यदेव), तामेव (तमेव, तदेव), खिप्पामेव ( क्षिप्रमेव ), एवामेव (एवमेव ), संजयामेव (संयतमेव), तणामवि (तृणमपि ).
53. Two vowels coming together in one and the same word do not, as a rule, coalesce as in मुद्धाए, देवीए, पाओ, विजए, पई, साउ. The उद्वृत्त vowel, i. e., a vowel left over after the dropping of a consonant, never coalesces with the preceding vowel, but very often it is turned into य. But we have चक्काअ, (चक्रवाकं). Rarely we have काही for काहिइ.
54. All sandhi in a sentence is optional in Amg. as in other Prakrits. We may have धम्म आइक्खइ or धम्ममाइक्खइ. Rarely when two vowels come together between words, one at the end of the first word is dropped as चिन्तमन्तक्खाया (चित्तवती + आख्याता). But this is absolutely forbidden when.and 371 are followed by vowel or when the ending vowel of verbal termination is followed by a vowel. Thus we have मे अच्चम्बिलं (मेऽत्यम्लम्), भमरो आवियई (भ्रमर आपिबति), आलक्खिमो एण्हि (आलक्षयाम इदानीम् ), इच्छसि आवेउं (इच्छसि आपातुम् ), होइ इह (भवति इह ).
