स्वार्थिक prescribed (after a base) in the sense of itself; i.e. in the sense of the base. The word is used in connection with a large number of tad. affixes which are prescribed without any special sense at- tached to them; vide P. V.3.36 to P. V. 4.67. The Samasanta affixes prescribed from P.V.4.68 onwards can also be called स्वार्थिक; cf. स्वार्थिकाश्च प्रकृतितो लिङ्गवचनान्यनुवर्तन्ते । M.Bh. on P. V. 4. 14, 27. See the word स्वार्थ.

स्वाश्रय possessed as its own, as contrasted with artificial or inten- tionally stated ( आनुदेशिक ); cf. अस्त्वत्र आनुदेशिकस्य वलादित्वस्य प्रतिषेधः । स्वाश्रयमत्र बलादित्वं भविष्यति M. Bh. on P. I. 1. 59 Vart. 6.

            

हू the last of the spirant consonants, which is a glottal, voiced letter called also ऊष्म or spirant of a part- ial contact, i. e. possessed of the properties कण्ठय, नादानुप्रदान, ऊष्म and ईषत्स्पृष्टत्व. This letter has been given twice in the Paninian alphabet, viz. the Mahesvara Sutras, and the Bhasyakara has given the pur- pose of it, viz. the technical utility of being included among soft consonants along with semi-vowels, nasals and the fifth, the fourth, and the third class-consonants (हश् अश् etc.),as also among the hard consonants along with the fourth and the third class-letters and spi- rants (झल्,). The second letter हू in हल् appears, however, to have only a technical utility,as the pur-

pose of its place there among spir- ants is served by the Jihvamuliya and the Upadhmaniya letters which are,in fact, the velar and the labial spirants respectively, besides the other three शू, षू and सू .The Rk Pratisakhya calls ह as a chest sound. For details, see Mahabhasya on the Siva Sutra हयवरट् Varttikas 1, 2 and 3.

II.6; (3) name of an external effort causing घोष; cf. सांप्रतिके प्रकृतिस्थे कण्ठे सति हृकारो नाम बाह्यः प्रयत्नः क्रियते । तेन च व्यञ्जनेषु घोषो जायते। Vaidikabharana on T.Pr. II.6; (4) name of a kind of external effort of the type of अनुप्रदान found in the utterance of the consonant ( ह् ) and the fourth class-consonants; cf. हकारौ हृचतुर्थेषु T.Pr.II.9.
