—on account of that prohibition; and here, because the word anuśaya ends with the affix ac, it ends with a kṛt affix. Therefore, if it is argued that the word anuśayin is difficult to justify—this is not sound, because the intention is not understood. This statement is of general (not absolute) scope. Hence it has been stated by the author of the Vṛtti: “The use of iti is intended to indicate the speaker’s intention, and it applies everywhere.” Thereby one occasionally gets kāryin, kāryika, taṇḍulin, taṇḍulika. Thus the prohibition after a kṛt-derivative and a generic class is merely general. It is established that the affix ini is justified since the word anuśaya is a kṛt-derivative.
