The two words usually occur in the singular without any connecting particle, Turvaśa Yadu or Yadu Turvaśa.² In a plural form the name Turvaśa occurs once with the Yadus,³ and once alone⁴ in a hymn in which the singular has already been used. In one passage⁵ the dual Turvaśā-Yadū actually occurs, and in another⁶ Yadus Turvaś ca, ‘Yadu and Turva.’ In other passages⁷ Turvaśa appears alone, while in one⁸ Turvaśa and Yādva occur. - [Previous: v1.c3.s17.321](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17.321) - [Next: v1.c3.s17.323](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17.323) - [Up: v1.c3.s17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17) ## Linked texts (1) - [Ṛgvedasaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.rg) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17.322](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17.322) · Pramāṇa
