कपिञ्जलन्यायः (kapiJjalanyAyaH)

 
लौकिकन्यायः
English
There is an injunction in the Brāhmaṇas that the Kapiñjala birds should be sacrificed but the number of these birds is not mentioned. This doubt arises because the word Kapiñjala is used in plural. So it can be inferred that at least three birds should be killed. This maxim is applied to those items where the grammatical form determines the meaning of the word. --जैमिनिसूत्र 11.1.38-46
