also in the same sense; cf. यथोक्तं पुनरुक्तं त्रिपदप्रभृति त्रिपदप्रभृति । T.Pr.I.6l: cf. also R. Pr. X.8 and 10.

पुनर्ग्रहण recital of a word again in the Krama and other Pāțhas for a special purpose, although such a recital after three times is gener- ally discouraged; cf. एवमर्थविशेषात् पुनरुक्तस्य ग्रहणं भवति ... Uv Bhāşya on V. Pr. IV. 177.

पुनर्वचन use of the same word or expression, which, if noticed in the writing of the Sūtrakāra, is indi- cative of something in the mind of the Sūtrakāra; cf. अणः पुनर्वचनमपवाद- विषये अनिवृत्त्यर्थम् M. Bh. of P III. 3. 12 Vārt.1; cf also पुनर्वचनमनित्यत्वज्ञा- पनार्थम् । Kāś. on P. I. 41"

Al- though पुभ् is changed to पुंस् before a word beginning with a hard consonant, still पुंस् is given as an independent word derived from the root पा cf. पातेर्डुम्सुन् Unādi S IV. 177; cf. also the expressions पुंवचन, पुंलिङ्ग and पुंयोग.
