Text and translation

Read in the chapter →

47. 23. Atissa c’ antassa (60)

[Atissa + ca + antassa = 3 words]

Ati icc etassa antabhūtassa tisaddassa ivaṇṇe pare “sabbo caṃ tī” ti vuttarūpaṃ na hoti.

Atīsigaṇo, atīritaṃ.

Ivaṇṇe ti kasmā? Accantaṃ (VinA. i, 1).

And to the end of ‘ati’.
When the letters ‘i’ and ‘ī’ follow, the said form ordained by “sabbo caṃ ti” (§19) does not apply to the end syllable ‘ti’ of ‘ati’.
Examples: “Atīsigaṇo”, “atīritaṃ”.
Examples [with formation sequence]

Atīsigaṇo: ati isi gaṇo; at i isi gaṇo (§10); at isi gaṇo (§12); at īsi gaṇo (§15); atīsigaṇo (§11).

Atīritaṃ: ati īritaṃ; at i īritaṃ (§10); at īritaṃ (§12); atīritaṃ (§11).

Why say “letters ‘i’ and ‘ī’”? [To allow the operation of this rule in the following example] “Accantaṃ”.

Counter-example

Accantaṃ: ati antaṃ; at i antaṃ (§10); a c antaṃ (§19); a cc antaṃ (§28); accantaṃ (§11).

Without the footnotes: they are on the chapter card.
