गो's ओ and the accusative अम्/शस् coalesce into a single long आ

The stem गो "cow, ox" ends in ओ. Before the accusative-singular ending अम् and the accusative-plural ending शस्, the ओ and the ending's vowel are replaced by a single long आ: गो + अम् → गाम् "the cow (acc.)", गो + अस् → गाः "the cows (acc.)". Elsewhere गो keeps its ओ or takes गुण and vṛddhi as the ending calls for — गावौ, गवा, गोः.
