क्तेन नञ्-विशिष्टेन अनञ्

Adhyāya 2 · Pāda 1 · Rule 60

A word ending with the affix kta and not having the negative augment nañ is compounded with the same word ending with the affix kta but which is distinguished from the former, by having the augment nañ and the resulting compound is tat-puruṣa ,

Thus कुताकृतं 'done and not done,' भुक्ताभुक्तं 'eaten and not eaten,' पीतापीतं 'drunk and not drunk,' उदितानुदेतं 'spoken and not spoken.'

The intermediate augment न or the इ, as in the following two examples, do not make the forms dissimilar. अशितानशितेन जीवति क्लिष्टाक्लिशितेन वर्त्तते ॥

Vart:-The compounds कृतापकृत, &c. should also be included.
