लिङ् च

Adhyāya 3 · Pāda 3 · Rule 159

The affix liṅ (Benedictive) is used after a verb when the verbs meaning 'to wish' are in construction with it and the agent of both the verbs is the same.,

Under similar conditions, with words implying 'wish', the Potential is used in the sense of the Infinitive; Thus भुञ्जीय इति इच्छति 'he wishes that he may eat'; अधीयीयेतीच्छति 'he wishes that he will read'.

When the non-completion of the action is implied, the Conditional must be employed under rule 3.3.139.,
