अप्सुमति (apsumati)

 
Goldstucker
English
अप्सुमति Bahuvr. (?)…[The meaning of the word is not
given anywhere, to my knowledge
its form is mentioned
in the Vārtt. अपोयानि° to Pāṇ. VI. 3. 1., but on its cor-
rectness the doctors disagree: Nagojibh. (who alone of the
older comm. on Pāṇini subjects it to a remark) finds that
it is a proper form, but states at the same time that some
believe it a wrong reading in the Bhāṣya instead of अप्सु-
मत् (aff. मतु)
Bhaṭṭojid. in the Prauḍham., on the other
hand, denies flatly its occurence in Patanjali or anywhere
else
Nagojibh.: अप्सुमतिरिति वृत्तिहरिदत्तादयस्तु वार्त्तिके
मतुष्विति पठित्वा अप्सुमन्तावाज्यभागावित्युदाहरन्ति (see

रित्युदाहृतं तद्भाष्यादौ दृष्टम्. The E. I. H. Mss. 326 of the Ma-
