Line 179:

* '''s''' or '''š''' plus any voiced stop, or '''ṣ''' followed by any non-dental voiced stop, disappear but synchronically lengthen the previous vowel (e.g. ''kus-drāltake'' → ''kūdrāltake'').

* Dental stops followed by '''s''' become the corresponding affricate (e.g. ''prāt-skaglas'' → ''prāçkaglas''), while when followed by '''ṣ''' or '''š''' the result is a palatal affricate (e.g. ''prāt-ṣveya'' → ''prācveya'').

Note that the two roots ''lih-'' and ''muh-'' behave, before consonants, as if they were *lis- and *mus-.

Note that the two roots ''lih-'' and ''muh-'' behave, before consonants (with a few exceptions, e.g. the verbal infinitive), as if they were *lis- and *mus-.

If the first sound which undergoes saṃdhi is already part of a cluster, a few more assimilations may occur. In a nasal-stop + stop sequence, usually the first stop gets cancelled, but nasals do not assimilate entirely to the stop:
