Abhyankara Grammar

English

षत्व  change of the consonant म् into ष् in certain conditions in the formation of a word,  or after pre- positions in the case of verbs beginning with स्. This cerebra- lization of स् was a peculiar pho- netic change which naturally occ- urred when स् in utterance came after a vowel excepting अ. Some of the Pratisakhya works have ex- haustively treated this change and Panini has also mentioned many rules in connection with it.
