2. Kty has noted the forms, fodan, sodasa (6.3.109.3), dūdaśa and dudabha (6.3.109.5).
3. Among instances of voc. sg. forms, Ptj mentions the stem ambalz.! beside the stem ambada (III. 340.7).
dadabha Kits 2169 9oted the forms
(d)dh < (d)dh
1. S. Sen points out that, while sadhri is given by P as a substitute to saha (6.3.95 ), in literature it is attested not like that but only In MIA as saddhin. Tbis latter appears to be a counterpart of the Sanskrit, sard dhi.
2. Kty has noted the forms sodha (6.3.109.3) and dūdhya (6.3.109.5). (g.3) Decerebralisation
1. On P's sankaja, prakafa and utkata ( 5.2.29 ), Ptj says that the meanings conveyed by these were respectively sangata, pragata and udgata (II.375 20f.). Does it suggest an actual usage in the speech than showing decerebralisation ?
2. krs- > kasa- noted by Pej is already mentioned.
C-3. Consonant Clusters (a) jy > i
1. It is already mentioned that scholars are inclined to derive from rajy (through raji ).
2. Palsuleti derives sajj- also (from v saj-) through sajy.

(b) sj >
P's discovery of the root masj- (cf.7.1.60 ) and >bhrasj-, at the base of majj- and bhrajj- respectively (both arrived at by 8.4.53 and 8.4.40), has been hailed by scholars.
(c) kş < khas P's record of khefa once (: kşetra ) has been already mentioned. (d) ps > cches
While P mentions Ipsita often, bis Vicch- is certainly a Prakrit form of vipsa.
(e) dy > PV
In an interesting passage in M (1.11. 11 14), P records the style of some ritual scholars uttering the phrase yar va maḥ and tar va naḥ, though only in informal situations; while in formal (ritual) situations they would be particular to utter those 28 yad ya nah and tad va nah.
