Abhyankara Grammar
English
पित् marked with the mute letter प् which is indicative of a grave accent in the case of affixes marked with it, as for example, the affixes तिप् , सिप् and मिप्
cf. अनुदात्तौ सुप्पितौ P. III. 1.4. A Sarva- dhātuka affix, marked with the mute consonant प्, in Pāņiņi's Grammar has been described as instrumental in causing many operations such as (a) the substitu- tion of guņa
(cf P. VII. 3 84, 9l). (b) the prevention of guņa in the case of a reduplicative syllable as also in the case of the roots भू and सू ( cf. P. VII. 3.87, 88 )
(c) the substitution of Vŗddhi, (cf. P. VII. 3.89, 90 ), (d) the augments and in the case of the roots तृह् and ब्रू respectively ( cf. P. VII. 3.92, 93, 94 ), and (e) acute accent for the vowel preceding the affix in the case of the roots भी, हृी, भृ and others ( cf. P. VI. 1.192 ). A short vowel (of a root) gets त् add- ed to it when followed by a kŗt affix marked with प्: e.g., विजित्य​, प्रकृत्य, etc.:(cf. P. VI. 1.71 ).
