Inasmuch as by the rule \*yūnas tiḥ\* (Pāṇini 4.1.77) it has the designation of a secondary suffix, it is indeed a nominal stem (\*prātipadika\*). That is true; however, the word \*yuvati\*, being a synonym denoting women in general, is a different morphological base; as he says: ‘Without conflicting with dharma, artha, and the time for auxiliary disciplines, a man should study the \*Kāmasūtra\* and its auxiliary disciplines; a woman, before youth’ (\*Kāmasūtra\* 1.3). After that \[word\], or after this very one ending in the affix taught in \*yūnas tiḥ\*, the secondary suffix \*ḍhak\* originates by the optional prohibition of \*ṅīṣ\* according to \*er ac-ktinaḥ\*; as in \*āditeyaḥ\*, \*saurabheyaḥ\*. > > Now, how are \*kādraveyaḥ\* and \*kāmaṇḍaleyaḥ\* \[derived\]? For although \*ṅī\* and \*āp\* are not nominal stems, by the specific rule \*ṅyāpprātipadikāt\* (Pāṇini 4.1.1), and because that which ends with the affix taught in \*yūnas tiḥ\* is a secondary suffix, let the nominal inflection (\*sup\*) arise; but in the case of the feminine suffix \*ūṅ\*, since it is an affix, that \[derivation\] would not be established, and the secondary suffix must occur after semantically compatible forms. It will occur by virtue of being treated as final (\*antavadbhāva\*); for thus in \*brahmabandhūḥ\* and so forth, by \*akaḥ savarṇe dīrghaḥ\* (Pāṇini 6.1.101), the two become one. If so, the affix \*ḍhak\* by \*strībhyo ḍhak\* (Pāṇini 4.1.120) would not be established; that too will occur by virtue of being treated as initial (\*ādivadbhāva\*). Or else, nominal case-inflection originates prior to the origination of \*ūṅ\*, based on the indicator rule \*sāsya devatā\* (Pāṇini 4.2.24). > > Thus this morphological base consisting of an affix has also been stated as sixfold; / now, from this point, that which has the form of a nominal stem is explained as sixfold. > > \[Morphological Base in the Form of a Nominal Stem\] > > 1.7 In that regard, simple nouns, indeclinables, roots expressing action, primary derivatives, secondary derivatives, and compound words are nominal stems; as it is said: ‘That which possesses meaning, is not a verbal root, and is not an affix, is a nominal stem’ (Pāṇini 1.2.45), and ‘Primary derivatives, secondary derivatives, and compound words are also \[nominal stems\]’ (Pāṇini 1.2.46). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.p1.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.art.alamkara.rasa.srngaraprakasa.1.p1.5) - [Next: 1.p1.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.art.alamkara.rasa.srngaraprakasa.1.p1.7) - [Up: 1.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.art.alamkara.rasa.srngaraprakasa.1.p1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.art.alamkara.rasa.srngaraprakasa~en-mt.1.p1.6) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.art.alamkara.rasa.srngaraprakasa.1.p1.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.art.alamkara.rasa.srngaraprakasa.1.p1.6) · Pramāṇa
