Vyākaraṇa-saṅgraha: Pada–Vibhakti–Kāraka–Lakāra–Samāsa
न कर्तृकर्मणोः षष्टी निष्टादिप्रतिपादिका । एता वै द्विविधा ज्ञेयाः सुबादिषु विभक्तिषु । भूवादिषु तिङतेषु लकारा दश वै स्मृताः ॥ १७ ॥
na kartṛkarmaṇoḥ ṣaṣṭī niṣṭādipratipādikā | etā vai dvividhā jñeyāḥ subādiṣu vibhaktiṣu | bhūvādiṣu tiṅateṣu lakārā daśa vai smṛtāḥ || 17 ||
第六格（ṣaṣṭhī・属格）は、行為者と対象を示すためのものではなく、むしろ niṣṭā などに表される分詞的意味を伝える。ゆえに、su にはじまる名詞の屈折（supādi）の中で、これらの格語尾は二種であると知るべきである。また動詞体系においては—bhū などの動根に基づく tiṅ 語尾のうち—十の lākāra（時制・法の標識）が伝統として記憶される。
