देव्यै fDs

Today we will look at the form देव्यै from श्रीमद्वाल्मीकि-रामायणम् ।

दत्ता चास्मीष्टवद्देव्यै ज्येष्ठायै पुण्यकर्मणे |
तया सम्भाविता चास्मि स्निग्धया मातृसौहृदात् ||२-११८-३३||

Gita Press translation “I was further given over, like a coveted issue, to the senior most queen, who was given to meritorious deeds; and I was brought up by that tender lady through motherly affection.”

‘देवी’ gets प्रातिपदिकसंज्ञा by 1-2-45 अर्थवदधातुरप्रत्ययः प्रातिपदिकम्। The विवक्षा here is चतुर्थी-एकवचनम्. 4-1-2 स्वौजसमौट्छष्टाभ्याम्भिस्ङेभ्याम्भ्यस्ङसिँभ्याम्भ्यस्ङसोसाम्ङ्योस्सुप् mandates the प्रत्ययाः सुँ, औ, जस् etc. after the प्रातिपदिकम् ‘देवी’

(2) देवी + ए । अनुबन्ध-लोप: by 1-3-8 लशक्वतद्धिते and 1-3-9 तस्य लोपः।

(2) देवी + आट् ङे । By 7-3-112 आण्नद्याः , the ङित् affixes (here ङे) that follow the अङ्गम् ending in a term having the नदी-सञ्ज्ञा, get the आट् augment.
