Commentary

The affixes आलच् and आटच् come in the sense of मतुप् after वाच् , the word denoting 'a talkative'.
This debars ग्मिन् ॥ Thus वाचालः 'garrulous', वाचाटः ॥

Vart:- These affixes come when contempt is expressed. An orator (वाग्मी) also talks much, but to the purpose. He will not be called वाचालः or वाचाटः ॥
