Commentary
The direction denoting words have acute accent (उदात्त) on the final, before the names of scholars when such names derived from those of their teachers.
Thus पूर्व꣡पाणिनीयाः, अपर꣡पाणिनीयाः, पूर्व꣡काशकृत्स्नाः, अपर꣡काशकृत्स्नाः ॥ Compare 6.2.36 Why do we say 'when derived from the names of their Teachers'? Observe पूर्वशिष्याः ॥ Why do we say 'Scholar-names'? Observe पूर्वपाणिनीयं शास्त्रम् ॥ (पाणिनीयं शास्त्रं पूर्वं चिरन्तनम्) ॥
