There are not many u- stems derived from roots originally ending in u, as several of these (about nine) have joined the consonant declension by adding the determinative -t". Some eight stems are, however, formed from roots in -u, all of them but one (dyú-) being compounds. These are: dyú- 'day', abhi-dyu- 'heavenly'; mitá-dru-¹² 'firm-legged', raghu-dri- 'running swiftly'; á-pra-yu-¹3 'assiduous'; ádhri-gu-¹4 'irresistible', vanar-gi- 'forest- roaming'; su-sti- 'highly praised' ¹5. There are besides some 12 stems in which is radical in a secondary sense as representing the shortened form of the vowel of three roots ending in -16. These are: dhi-jú- 'inspiring the mind', from jū- 'impeľ'; su-pú- ‘clarifying well', from pu- 'purify'; and com- pounds of bhu- 'be': á-pra-bhu- 'powerless', abhi-bhú- ‘superior', ä-bhú- ‘empty', ud-bhi- 'persevering', pari-bhi- 'surrounding', puru-bhú- 'appearing in many places', pra-bhú- 'powerful', mayo-bhi- 'delighting', vi-bhi- 'far-extending', Sam-bhi- beneficent', su-bhi- 'good'. 387. The inflexion of these words is identical with that of derivative u- stems. Forms which occur are the following: Sing.

The VS. (xxi. 25) has jatus. 14 'going unrestrained', from gu-'go' =ga-. 15 The words sabar-dhi- 'yielding nectar', and á-smrta-dhru- 'not caring for enemies', seem to be compounded with -duh (-dhuk) and -druh (-dhruk: see pw.). 16 They are therefore transfers from the radical - declension, all the N. A. neuters of which are thus formed, 17 sabar-dhús (VS. v. 26; Kh, iv. 5²⁰) sabar-dhúk. 18 sabar-dhúm A, f. sabar-dúham. =
