Synopsis A. THE MAIN TOPIC, The main topic is anga, continued from P 6.4. For details see AP IX, Introduction, p. ix. B. THE ORGANIZATION OF P 7.2, Pada 7.2 starts with a section on vrddhi rules, and therefore offers a convenient break with pada 7.1 which ends with four rules prescribing a short vowel substitute. Like in pada 7.1 the main types of operations in 7.2 are substitution and augmentation of which augmentation is the most frequent one. Out of 118 rules seventy deal with the augment iT. The substitution rules deal with urddhi and non-vrddhi substitutions, the latter mainly for pronominal forms.The organization of pada 2 is established on the basis of anuvrtti. We mention the following sections (indicated by number), sub-sections (indicated by a, b, etc.), and further sub-divisions (indicated by aa, bb, etc.). Sections and sub-sections and further subdivisions may be formed by a common uddesya including a common condition, or a common vidheya. Sub-sections may partially overlap.
