शूल-ऊखात् यत्

Pāṇini leaves out words that carry over from earlier sūtras. Expand to see the rule as a reader actually understands it.

Commentary

The affix यत् comes in the sense of 'prepared food' after the words शूल and उखा ending in the Locative -7th case.
This debars अण् 4.1.83. As शूले संस्कृतं = शू꣡ल्यं 'roasted on a spit' -- i.e. meat. So also उ꣡ख्यम् 'flesh boiled in a pot'.
