1.3.76

अनुपसर्गाज्ज्ञः

Laghu-siddhāntakaumudī does not carry this rule. It stands in the Aṣṭādhyāyī at 1.3.76, and the abridgement is 1,269 of Pāṇini's 3,983 rules — so this is a place where the poem runs past the textbook.

after unprefixed ज्ञा, when the fruit is the agent's, आत्मनेपद is used

The root ज्ञा "to know", when it carries no prefix (अनुपसर्गात्), takes the आत्मनेपद endings — the middle set — where the fruit of the act accrues to the agent, कर्त्रभिप्राये क्रियाफले, carried down from the earlier rule. So the unprefixed "know" conjugates in the middle voice: जाने "I know", जानीथाः "you would know", ज्ञास्यसे "you will know". A prefixed ज्ञा (as प्रज्ञा) falls outside it. The derivation names the rule on the silent step where the middle set is chosen. This rule stands outside the Laghu-siddhāntakaumudī abridgement.

• Siddhāntakaumudī — outside the Laghu-siddhāntakaumudī abridgement's 1,269 sūtras
