In a compound in many cases the initial Vowel of the second member is joined with the final vowel of the first, but frequently also the two members are merely justaposed without such vocalic coalescence, this being quite usual in the Pk. sandhi. So we have f 130a, and - 536, विवरंतर 49c and घण-अंतर 1420, दीहुन्छ 666 and पीण उन्नय 45c, etc. भाउलं 208b is भा-आकुलम्.
Specially to be noted are the four cases of sentence-sandhi: नासासिहसि (= न आ ) 191e, णाविउ (= ण आ ) 1970; Pk. ताणणु ( = ताण अणु ) 7a', and perhaps विसमुट्ठियउ (= विसमु उट्ठियउ ) 86.
Initial conjunct in the seam of compounds is represented by a single (e. g. - 24a) or conjunct (e. g. - 866) consonant according to metrical convenience.
