What [is] the purpose?
numlopasrivyanubandhalope apratiṣedhārtham .
For the sake of non-prohibition (apratiṣedha) on the lopa of num, of srivi, and of an anubandha.
numlope srivyanubandhalope ca pratiṣedhaḥ mā bhūt iti .
So that the prohibition may not [wrongly] arise on the lopa of num, and on the lopa of srivi and of an anubandha.
numlope: abhāji rāgaḥ upabarhaṇam .
On the lopa of num: abhāji, rāgaḥ, upabarhaṇam.

On the lopa of an anubandha: lūñ — lavitā, lavitum.
yadi parigaṇanam kriyate syadaḥ, praśrathaḥ, himaśrathaḥ iti atra api prāpnoti .
If the enumeration is made, [then] in syadaḥ, praśrathaḥ, himaśrathaḥ too [the prohibition] would apply.

Then, in that case (tarhi), the enumeration must be made.

On the lopa of num, why does [the prohibition] not apply?
ikprakaraṇāt numlope vṛddhiḥ .
From the ik-heading, on the lopa of num [it is a non-ik] vṛddhi.
iglakṣaṇayoḥ guṇavṛddhyoḥ pratiṣedhaḥ na ca eṣā iglakṣaṇā vṛddhiḥ .
The prohibition is of the guṇa and vṛddhi characterized by ik (ig-lakṣaṇa); and this vṛddhi is not one characterized by ik.
yadi iglakṣaṇayoḥ guṇavṛddhyoḥ pratiṣedhaḥ syadaḥ, praśrathaḥ, himaśrathaḥ iti atra na prāpnoti .
If the prohibition is of guṇa and vṛddhi characterized by ik, [then] in syadaḥ, praśrathaḥ, himaśrathaḥ it would not apply.
iha ca prāpnoti: avodaḥ, edhaḥ, odmaḥ iti .
And here it would [wrongly] apply: avodaḥ, edhaḥ, odmaḥ.

If the prohibition is of guṇa and vṛddhi characterized by ik, [then] on the lopa of srivi and of an anubandha, how [do we get] sriveḥ āsremāṇam, lūñ lavitā?
pratyayāśrayatvāt anyatra siddham .
Because [the operation] rests on the affix (pratyaya-āśraya), it is established elsewhere.
ārdhadhātukanimitte lope pratiṣedhaḥ na ca eṣaḥ ārdhadhātukanimittaḥ lopaḥ .
The prohibition [holds] when the lopa is occasioned by an ārdhadhātuka; and this is not a lopa occasioned by an ārdhadhātuka.
yadi ārdhadhātukanimitte lope pratiṣedhaḥ jīradānuḥ atra na prāpnoti .
If the prohibition is [only] when the lopa is occasioned by an ārdhadhātuka, [then] in jīradānuḥ it would not apply.
raki jyaḥ prasāraṇam .
Before rak, [it is] the saṁprasāraṇa of jyā (jyaḥ).
na etat jīveḥ rūpam .
This is not a form of [the root] jīv.
raki etat jyaḥ prasāraṇam .
Before rak, this is the saṁprasāraṇa of jyā.
yāvatā ca idānīm raki jīveḥ api siddham bhavati .
And inasmuch as, now, before rak it is established from jīv also.
katham upabarhaṇam .
How [is] upabarhaṇam [formed]?
bṛhiḥ prakṛtyantaram .
bṛhi is a different root (prakṛty-antara).
katham jñāyate bṛhiḥ prakṛtyantaram iti .
How is it known that bṛhi is a different root?
aci iti hi lopaḥ ucyate anajādau api dṛśyate: nibṛhyate .
For the lopa is stated [to occur] 'before a vowel (aci)', [yet] it is seen also before a non-vowel: nibṛhyate.
aniṭi iti ca ucyate .
And it is stated '[before] an aniṭ [affix]'.
iḍādau api dṛśyate: nibarhitā nibarhitum iti .
[Yet] it is seen also before an iṭ-initial [affix]: nibarhitā, nibarhitum.
ajādau api na dṛśyate: bṛṃhayati bṛṃhakaḥ .
And before a vowel it is [also] not seen: bṛṃhayati, bṛṃhakaḥ.
tasmāt na arthaḥ parigaṇanena .
Therefore there is no purpose in the enumeration.
yadi parigaṇanam na kriyate bhedyate chedyate atra api prāpnoti .
If the enumeration is not made, [then] in bhedyate, chedyate too [the prohibition] would apply.
na eṣaḥ doṣaḥ .
This is no fault.
dhātulope iti na evam vijñāyate: dhātoḥ lopaḥ dhātulopaḥ, dhātulope iti .
'dhātu-lope' is not to be understood thus: 'the lopa of the root (dhātoḥ lopaḥ) [is] dhātu-lopa, [hence] on the dhātu-lopa (dhātu-lope)'.
dhātoḥ lopaḥ asmin tat idam dhātulopam, dhātulope iti .
'That in which there is a lopa of the root — that is dhātu-lopa (dhātu-lopam); [hence] on the dhātu-lopa (dhātu-lope)'.
tasmāt iglakṣaṇayoḥ guṇavṛddhyoḥ pratiṣedhaḥ .
Therefore the prohibition is of the guṇa and vṛddhi characterized by ik (ig-lakṣaṇa).
yadi tarhi iglakṣaṇayoḥ guṇavṛddhyoḥ pratiṣedhaḥ pāpacakaḥ, pāpaṭhakaḥ, magadhakaḥ, dṛṣadakaḥ atra na prāpnoti .
If, then, the prohibition is of guṇa and vṛddhi characterized by ik, [then] in pāpacakaḥ, pāpaṭhakaḥ, magadhakaḥ, dṛṣadakaḥ it would not apply.
allopasya sthānivatvāt .
Because the lopa of the a (al) is sthānivat.
akāralope kṛte tasya sthānivatvāt guṇavṛddhī na bhaviṣyataḥ .
The lopa of the a (akāra) having been effected, because of its sthānivat-status the guṇa and vṛddhi will not occur.
