A CRITICAL STUDY OF PAUMACARIYAK
(I) We see that the declension 'ë' is equally used for 'e' in the singular forms. Pischel (385) notes that it is allowed in all dialects for metrical regularity.
(2) Ablative declension 'e' is allowed by Hemacandra (8.3.29) but not by Vararuci.
____ Sometimes 'artha' and 'hetu' are appended to the bases for expressing dative:
दोरत्थे ४।५०, गवेसणठे ४६।५८, वहत्यं ४।४७, कीलणहेउं २८।६. We find some instances of dative having 'ae' declension:japavanatthāe 11.88, See 39.69%; 9.47.9.94.
Pischel notes (363,364) them in Ardhomagadhi. and Jaina Maharastri.
Nouns ending in consonants are simplified by dropping final consonants or by adding some vowels to them and then the declensions are appended :
(1) Dropping the final consonant : Nom. इन्दई ५६
मन्ती ५।१७७ चक्कवट टी २८।६८ Acc. भयवं १७ तपं ५।३०
सराइ६४।३८ Inst. मरोणं ४।७२ नामेण ५२२० Gen. मणस्स ६६ मन्तिस्स १०४।४ Loc. पाउम्मि ३।३६ सिरे ३३५ नामे ५२२७ Voc. सामि ७०।३७ भयवं १४।१०८
(2) Adding of vowel 'a' to Masc. and 'a' to Feminine:Nom. धारिणो ७८८ एगमणसो १०।५३ दिसायो २।३४ अच्छरसायो ७११२० Inst. पियरेण ३११११२ गिराए १०४।११
Gen. पियराण १०६।३५ ।
Loc. दिसासु ८।२८६. Sometimes we find Sanskrit forms with phonological changes : Nom. Sing. पिया माया भाया १०६।३६ राया २८।१५ महप्पा २८८ Nom. Plu. नेयारो १४१६२ पियरो २०११८३ पासण्डिणो ४।८५ मन्तिणो ८।१५
