Y Ya°

Y

n
-Y- comb consonant (sandhi), inserted (euphonically) between 2 II. Meaning: "which," in correspondence to a following
vowels for the avoidance of hiatus. It has arisen purely pho- demonstr. pron. (ta°); whichever (generalizing); nt. what,
n
netically from i as a sort of "gliding" or semi — vowel within a whatever. In immediate comb with the demonstr. pron. it is
word, where the syllable division was in regular speech more qualifying and specifying the person, thing or subject in dis-
openly felt than in the written language, e. g. pari — y — cussion or question (see below 4).
āpanna (Pāli) corresponds to Sk. pary — āpanna, similarly 1. Regular use as correl. pron., when ya° (+noun) is fol-
pari — y — osāna=Sk. paryosāna. Thus inserted after a be- lowed by ta° (+noun). Sometimes (in poetry) the reverse is
fore i or e: chay — imā disā D iii.188; ta — y — idaṁ Sn the case, e. g. at It 84 where ta° (m. sa) is elliptically omitted:

ya — y — ime jane is to be taken as ye ime jane; the spelling kind of Yakkha (but Inda) DA i.264. — The same use (ordi-
ay for e being found elsewhere as well. Cp. the following ta nary correlative) applies to the nt. forms yaṁ & yad in correl.

Special mention must be made of the nt. n. acc. sg., n
