1.3.13

भावकर्मणोः

लघुसिद्धान्तकौमुदी 747 · प्रकरण 30, which opens at भावकर्मणोः · rule 1 of 9 in it

in the impersonal and the passive, आत्मनेपद is used

In the भाव (the impersonal, where the bare action is stated with no agent) and in the कर्मन् (the passive, where the object stands as the grammatical subject), the आत्मनेपद endings — the middle set — are used, whatever pada the root takes in the active. So every passive conjugates in the middle voice. गीयते "it is sung", सूच्यते "it is pointed out" and आलुप्यते "it is snatched away" all take the आत्मनेपद ending by this rule. The derivation names it on the silent step where the middle set is chosen for the passive.
