Guest guest Posted January 28, 2005 Report Share Posted January 28, 2005 I dont see any reason why. Take the compound 'hantavya-pashu'. Extend this furthur. brahmana-hantavya-pashu. Sounds valid. Take another example, shilpi-nirmita-pratimA, gAnDIva-niHsRt-svanam . These are also valid.

Is it valid to form a longer compound from such a form, for example something like xxxx-kRt-yyyyy or must kRt always be the last member to be a valid form. Thanks, Harry Harry Spier 371 Brickman Rd.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2005 Report Share Posted January 28, 2005 As per P.1.2.46 "kRt-taddhita-samAsAzca", a kRdanta is supposed to be a prAtipadika and from P. 4.1.1-2 this prAtipadika can have a sup-vibhakti. Then from P.2.1.4 "saha supA" there is a further room for a samAsa (compound). --- Narayan Prasad Harry Spier <harryspier wrote: Dear list members, In Sanskrit the compound form xxxx-kRt is valid and common.
