Commentary
The three affixes श , न and इलच् come in the sense of मतुप् respectively after the words of the three classes i.e. 1. लोमदि 2. पामादि and 3. पिच्छादि and the affix मतुप् also comes in the alternative.
The affix श comes after लोमादि words as, लोमशः or लोमवान् 'hairy'. The affix न comes after पामादि words, as, पामनः or पामवान् 'scabby'. The affix इलच् comes after पिच्छादि words, as, पिच्छिलः or पिच्छिवान् 'broth'.
Vart:- The affix न comes after the word अङ्ग in the sense of beautiful; as अङ्गना 'the fair one' i.e. a woman.
Vart:- The words शाकी, पलाली and दद्रू shorten their final vowel before न, as शाकिनम् 'a field', पलालिनम्, दद्रुणम् ॥
Vart:- The word विष्वक् (विषु + अंच्) loses its second member, before न, and the change caused by sandhi (उ in to व्) is undone. Otherwise the form would be विष्णः (वक् being elided), as विष्वञ्जितानि सन्ति अस्य = विषुणम् 'moving variously'.
Vart:- The affix न comes after लक्ष्मी, before which ई is changed to अ, as लक्ष्मीरस्यास्ति = लक्ष्मणः ॥
Vart:- The affix ilach comes after jata, ghata, and kala, when censure is meant, as जटिलः, घटिलः कलिलः but जटावान् when no censure is meant.
