यङो ऽचि च

Adhyāya 2 · Pāda 4 · Rule 74

And there is diversely the luk elision of yaṅ -- dhātorekāco halādeḥ kriyāsamabhihāre yaṅ [[3.1.22]], when the affix ac -- nandigrahipacādibhyo lyuṇinyacaḥ [[3.1.134]], follows.,

By using 'diversely' there is elision of यङ् when other affixes than अच् follow, both in the sacred and profane literature; as लोलुवः 'much cutter' (लोलुव + अव्); पोपुवः 'much purifier' समीत्रंसः from स्रंस 'to drop.' दनीध्वंसः from ध्वंस 'to fall,' the नी being added by 7.4.84.

So also यङ् is elided before other affixes than अच् : thus शाकुनिकी लालपीति दुन्दुभिवीवदीति ॥ See also (I. I. 4).,
