anunāsika

anunāsika mfn. (-kaḥ-kā-kaṃ) Nasal, uttered through the nose.

E. anu and nāsikā the nose.

anu-nāsika (kaḥ-kā-kaṃ) a. Nasal.

anunāsika Tatpur. m. f. n. (-kaḥ-kā-kam) (In Grammar.) Uttered

through the nose, nasal (see also rakta), viz. ¹ A nasal sound

in general, it being pronounced through the nose and with

the appropriate organ of speech, as ṅ through the nose

and the throat, ñ through the nose and with the palate &c.

² (Conditionally) a vowel or y, v, l; in this case the nasal

nature of the sound is indicated by the sign ṃm̐. (N. B. yṃm̐ or

vṃm̐ represent the value of y or v preceded by m; lṃm̐ that

of l preceded by m or n. In the pause a final vowel may

be anunāsika. A short anunāsika vowel, when not occurr-

ing in a pause, represents apparently always the value of

the same vowel and m or n; it must be, in general, the

last vowel sound of the former part of a compound or of

the word itself, followed by a final sibilant, e. g. saṃm̐skartā

instead of sams-kartā, puṃm̐ścalī = pums-calī, tasmiṃm̐stvā =

tasmins-tvā. Only a few exceptions of this rule are mentioned

by the vaidik grammarians, e. g. aminantaṃm̐ evaiḥ, when a of nta

is anunāsika, although it does neither stand in a pause nor

represent more than its own sound.--A long anunāsika

vowel, when not occurring in a pause, may be generally

considered as representing the value of its short vowel and

an original nts or of its short vowel and nt, provided s or

its substitute has been preserved; e. g. mahāṃm̐ indraḥ = mahants

indraḥ, dadhanvāṃm̐ yaḥ = dadhanvants yaḥ, sargāṃm̐ iva = sargants iva

or mahāṃm̐ścarati = mahants carati, dasyūṃm̐rekaḥ = dasyunts ekaḥ.

The material difference that prevails between the anunāsika

(ṃm̐) and the anusvāra (ṃ) sound, does not appear to have

been kept alive beyond the period of the vaidik literature,

when an interchange between both was not deemed legiti-

mate; according to the grammarians of the classical period,

in the latter the anunāsika may be replaced by the anu-

svāra. The sign of the anunāsika (ṃm̐), however, is but

seldom met with in the ordinary Mss. referring to the post-

vaidik literature; and from the reasons stated, its use in

vaidik Mss. is objectionable, when it occurs in words like

yaśāṃm̐si, dhanūṃm̐ṣi, viśveṣāṃm̐ hitaḥ or in maṃm̐hiṣṭha, vājaṃm̐ saniṣat, indraṃm̐

stavāma and similar instances in which the long nasal vowel

does not represent more than the value of a short vowel

and a nasal, or in which the short nasal vowel is not fol-

lowed by a final sibilant.) E. anu and nāsikā.
