The affix sic before ātmanepada affixes is kit after the verb yam when meaning 'to divulge'.,
The word gandhana means 'to divulge,' 'to make known that which had been concealed.' The verb यम् has various meanings.
The result of kit is that the nasal is elided. The verb यम् becomes Atmanepada when preceded by the preposition आङ् by rule (1. 3. 28). Thus उत् + आ + यम् + त = उदायत = 'he divulged,' उदायसाताम्, उदायसत, the sich is elided by 8.2.27 and म् by 6.4.37. When the verb यम् has any other meaning than 'to divulge,' then the सिच् in the Atmanepada is not kit; as उदायंस्त पादस् 'he raised the foot.' So also उदायंस्त कूपादुदकम् 'he raised water from the well.' Though here the verb yam is in the transitive form and takes an object after it, yet it is Atmanepadi by Rule 1.3.75 which declares \after the verb yam to strive, preceded by सम्, उत् and आङ् when it does not refer to a book, the Atmanepada is employed.\,
