श्रविष्ठा-फल्गुन्य्-अनुराधा-स्वाति-तिष्य-पुनर्वसु-हस्त-विशाखा-अषाढा-बहुलाल् लुक्

Adhyāya 4 · Pāda 3 · Rule 34

The affix denoting 'born therein' is elided by luk after the words 1. śraviṣṭha 2. phālgunī 3. anurādhā 4. svāti 5. tiṣya 6. punarvasu 7. hasta 8. viśākhā 9. aṣāḍhā and 10. bahulā , all denoting asterisms.,

The feminine affixes are also elided after these words by 1.2.49. Thus श्रविष्ठासु जातः = श्रविष्ठः 'produced under Sravishtha'. So also फल्गुनः, अनुराधः, स्वातिः, तिष्यः, पुनर्वसुः, हस्तः, विशाखः, आषाढः, बहुलः ॥ The 'Bahula' is another Name of the asterism कृत्तिका ॥

Vart:- So also the affix is elided after the asterisms चित्रा, रेवती and रोहिणी when the word is feminine. Thus चित्रायां जाता 'a woman produced under Chitra' will be called चित्रा ॥ So also रेवती, रोहिणी ॥ The feminine affix which would have been elided after the two words Revati and Rohini, by (I. 2. 49.) is reordained by 4.1.41, because these words belong to गौरादि class.

Vart:- The affixes ट and अन् come respectively after फल्गुनी꣡ and आषाढा꣡ in forming the Feminine derivatives. As फल्गुनी꣡ (IV. I. 15) and अषाढा꣡ ॥ The difference is in accent and meaning.

Vart:- The affix छण् also comes after 'Sravishtha' and 'ashadha' As श्राविष्ठीयः and आषाढीयः ॥,
