अपदातौ साल्वात्

Adhyāya 4 · Pāda 2 · Rule 135

The affix vuñ comes after the word sālva in the senses of being born etc. when denoting 'a man 'or 'what exists in a man', provided that it does not mean a foot-soldier.,

The word साल्व which occurs in the कच्छादि class, would have taken वुञ् by the last sutra, when the sense was that of a man or some human attribute. The present sutra makes a restriction. Thus साल्वको मनुष्यः, साल्वकमस्य हसितं जल्पितं &c. But साल्वः पदाति र्व्रजति 'the Salva foot soldier goes.',
