The grammar of the indeclinables 13
sections the prädaya/:l in bahuvrïhis are called upasargas (5, 4, 119; 6, 2,
177; and see § 19). As to Iinguistic facts all the prädaya/:l are met with in
compositions with an accompanying noun, although some are seldom and
others frequently met with in th is function.
(2). As 'close adverb' to a tiT\ or prefix to a krt ('gat:', SP. 1. 4, 60) .
- Most of the prädaya/:l are regularly construed as gatis. however dus
and su are not of ten met with in this function before finite verbs. e.g. dus
caranti (BRW. 111 703, Rämäyal).a 3. 2, 25); the dictionaries moreover
mention: sunirvavau (MWO. 1220), su baddhvä (BRW. VII 1025.
Mrcchakatikä 176, 1 with the suffix ktvä. yet no imitation of Vedic idiom.
SP. 7, I, 38). It appears from the rare use of these constructions that
these groups of finite verb with su and dus are analogy-formations af ter
compound ta-participles.
