Commentary
After the causatives of the verbs ऊन 'to decrease', ध्वन 'to sound', इल् 'to send' and अर्द 'to go or to beg' चङ् is not the substitute of च्लि in the छन्दस् (Vedas).
Thus we have ऊनयीः in the Vedas; औनिनस् in the classical literature; so also ध्वनयीत्, ऐलयीः and अर्दयीत्; their classical forms being अदिध्वनत् , ऐलिलत्, an आर्दिदत्. See Rig Veda (I.53.3), (I.162.15.) and Panini 7.2.5.
