प्रतिश्रवणे च

Adhyāya 8 · Pāda 2 · Rule 99

The end syllable of the sentence which expresses assent or promise or listening to, is pluta,

The word प्रतिश्रवण means \agreement, assent or promise\: It also means \listening to\. All these senses are to be taken here, as there is nothing in the sutra to restrict its scope. Thus it has three senses, 1. to promise something to a petitioner, 2. to acknowledge the truth of some proposition, 3. to listen to another's words. Thus गां मे देहि भोः, 1. हन्त ते ददामि꣡ ३ ॥ 2. नित्यः शब्दो भवितुमर्हति꣡ ३ ॥ 3. देवदत्त भोः, किमात्या꣡ ३ ॥,
