page 392 note 1 It will be seen here that, while the dialect is based on Kaikēyapaiśācikī, in Śaurasena = paiśācikī, as in Māgadhī Prakrit, the nominative of α-bases ends in ē.

page 393 note 1 See Wackernagel, , Altind. Gr. i, 137Google Scholar. Cf. Trumpp, , Sindhī Gr. 14Google Scholar, “The old pronunciation of these letters must have gone through great variations, till they have become the compound sounds of the modern Indian idioms.”

page 394 note 1 In JRAS. 1902, 47, I suggested that this jj might be descended from the Vrācaḍa yj, and this is not inconsistent with the present remarks.
