NOTES ON GRAMMAR OF THE OLD-WESTERN RAJASTHANI
85
üpharau (Adi. 55) <üpaharaü (Daç. v, 13) <*dparahaü (see $147) <Ap. uppara- <Skt. upara..
See $38. For p>pr see $31. $27. m is changed to l in : Lisaï (Yog. ii, 67, 111, Indr. l) <Ap. *mussaï<Skt. *musyati (musnáti).
$28. Euphonic y is inserted before a, a, when the latter are preceded by another vowel, in much the same function as the yacruti of Jaina Prakrit. Ex.:
kĩvara (Kinh. 10)<áp. * kara-xskt. kumara-, joyaï (P. 158) <Ap.joai Skt. dyotate, tiya (Adi C., passim) <tid (see 890) < Ap. *tehaha, nayara (P. 10) <Ap. Paara- <Skt. nagara-, rayani (Rs. 52) <Ap. raani <Skt. rajani, hiya (Âdi. 37) Ap. had <Skt. bhatdh. In some MSS. it is however omitted, thus : kūara (Dd. 1), tia (Adi C.), bhaviana (Rs. 1), hlá (Kal. 11), etc.
Euphonic y is also inserted, though rather rarely, after con, mostly when these consonants are followed by a, a, after j, when followed by o, and after kh, s to give the sound of Sanskrit ks, c. Ex.:
cyari (seo & 80) < Ap. cari <Skt. calvâri (Pischel,8 439), nyápita (P., passim) <Skt. napita-, karijyo (see $ 120) <*karijo < Ap. * karejjahu, samkhyepa (F585) <Skt. samksepa-, sya pa (P. 559) <Skt. ça pa-.
For other examples of the change jo>jyo cf. the case of the relative pronoun in the dialects of the Rajasthani.
$29. ris occasionally changed to d and vice versa. Ex.: keda (F 715, i, 14) <keri (see $73, (2)) < Ap. keraü <Skt. * kúryakam,
baïsárai (Dac. iv), sba"sddai (Adi C.) (see $ 141, (3)) < Ap. *uvaïsadai <Skt. *upaviçdyali (-upaveçayati).
Cf. the common interchanging of dental rand cerebral in colloquial Northern Gujarati (L.S.I., Vol. ix, Part ü, p. 329-330).
$298. r is changed to l in the termination-alaï < -araï <alaï of the causal. See $141, (3).
$30. ris occasionally elided, when falling between two vowels of which the second is i. Ex.:
oliu (Mu.) <*oilaü <*orilaü (see $144) < Ap. * orillai, *avărillai <Skt. aparilikah, païlaü (Mu.) < *parilaü (see § 144) <Ap. * părillai Skt. * pdrilákah, saïra (Çal. 118, Up. 28, 29, 41, 44, 50 etc.)* <sarira < Ap. sarira- <Skt. çarira-.
$31. Euphonic r is occasionally inserted between an initial single consonant and the following vowel, much in the same way, as euphonic y after c, n, i (see $ 28). The consonants, to which r is more commonly added, are: g, t, p, bh, s. The same tendency is to be observed in Apabhramça (see Pischel, $ 268). Old Western Rajasthani examples are
girohali (Yog. iii, 67) <*grohali <Ap. *gohali Skt. godha-, grahai (P. 290) Ap. * gahai Skt. *grahati (grhndti), trabu (Indr. 23) <Ap. *tambữ <Skt. támram, trinni (see $ 80) < Ap. tinni Skt. trini, trijai (see & 82) <Ap. tazijaü <Skt. trtiyakah, trisa (800 & 80) Ap. tisd, tisam <Skt. trimgat, trutai (Bh. 74) Ap. tuttaisSkt. trutyati, trodaï (F 783, 77) Ap. * todai Skt. * trotati (Pischel, $486),
