The affix gha comes after the words 1. aponaptṛ and 2. apannaptṛ in the sense of 'that its deity'.,
This debars अण् ॥ Thus अपोनप्त्रियं हविः or अपांनप्त्रियम् ॥ The words अपोनपात् and अपांनपात् are the names of two deities; these words irregularly assume the form ending in नप्तृ when the affix is to be added.,
