1 Shāhbāzgaṛhī todaśu is, of course, an impossible miswriting.

2 One feels slightly astonished to find in Professor Gray's Indo-Iranian Phonology, § 344, that “ the contraction of ayō to ē, āi is excessively rare ” It is, in fact, thus rare that it never occurred nor ever could do so. The one example given is, of course, trayōdaśa>terasa, which is little less than ridiculous.
