the final इ of an imperative ending becomes उ
In the imperative (लोट्), the final इ of a personal ending is replaced by उ. The third-person singular ति, for instance, becomes तु "let him —". So the causative of स्ना "to bathe" builds स्नपयतु "let it bathe"; भू gives भवतु "let it be"; अस् gives अस्तु "let there be". It is the small change that gives the imperative its characteristic -तु and -न्तु endings.
