'storm-god'; (5) with secondary -t: the two neuters yakr-t-¹ (AV.) 'liver', śákr-t-2 'excrement', and perhaps the etymologically obscure m. nápāt³ 'descendant', all three of which are supple- mented in the weak cases by the stems yakán-, śakán- and náptr- respectively. The inflexion of this group of stems is the same as that of the radical -t stems. VI. DECLENSION. NOUNS. I NOUNS. CONSONANT STEMS. Inflexion. 310. Sing.

Participles in -at are almost limited to the present active form of stems made with reduplication, viz. those of the third class (457) and of intensives (545). The old reduplicated participle (from ga- 'go') jágat- 'going', 'living', is used chiefly as a n. substantive meaning 'the animate world'. The analogy of these participles is followed by a few others formed from un- reduplicated stems: dás-at- 'worshipping', sás-at- 'instructing'7; also dákṣat- and dháksat-, the aor. participle of dah- burn'. A few others, again, originally participles, having come to be used as substantives, have shifted the accent to the suffix: vah-át-8 'stream', veh-át-9 (AV. VS.) f. 'barren cow', vagh-át-¹0 m. 'sacrificer', srav-át- f. 'stream'; like the regular participle sáśc-at- (from sac- 'accompany'), which as a substantive becomes saśc-át- m. 'pursuer'. In 1 Cp. Lat. jecur. 2 Cp. BRUGMANN, Grundriss 2, p. 559. 3 The suffix may here have been a pri- mary - added to the root pā: cp. LEU- MANN'S etymology (1888), Festgruss an Böht- lingk 77 f.; BRUGMANN 2, p. 366. 4 These forms might be locatives of devátāti-, satyátāti-, sarvátāti-. 5 These forms might be A. pl. 6 Perhaps marut in evayá-marut. 7 LANMAN 505, would place dăsat- “in- juring here, but there is no evideuce, as only a weak case, dásatas G. sing., occurs. 8 But váh-ant- 'carrying'. 9 The derivation of this word is obscure. 10 In one or two passages vāghát- still retains its participial sense. 11 But sráv-ant- 'flowing'.
