Medhātithi’s commentary (manubhāṣya):
From marriages other than the ‘Brahma’ and the rest—i.e., from the ‘Gāndharva,’ and the rest.

‘Those who say harsh and untrue words.’— Angry and indecent words addressed to one’s mother and sisters, etc., are what are meant by ‘harsh words.’ The meaning of the term ‘untrue’ is well-known. ‘Nṛśaṃsa-anṛta,’ compounded copulatively, give the form ‘nṛśaṃsānṛte,’ ‘harsh and untrue.’ He who is in the habit of Saying such words is called ‘nṛśaṃsānṛtavādin,’ ‘addicted to saying harsh and untrue words.’ Such is the explanation of the compound term.

‘Brahmadharma’ is ‘Vedic Dharma,’—i. e., the Dharma, Duty, laid down in the Veda; those who despise it, i.e., have no faith in it.

It is for this reason that these marriages have been deprecatingly called ‘inferior marriages.’—(41)
