Adhyaya 356
Forms Accomplished by Unādi (affixes) — उणादिसिद्धरूपम्
本章续讲《语法学》(Vyākaraṇa)之课程，由 taddhita（次生派生）转入 Unādi-pratyaya（乌那底后缀）：将特殊后缀加在动词词根之后，以生成传统上已确立的词形。以归于库玛罗(Kumāra)的教诲口吻，先列举派生结果（如 uṇi 生成 kāru“工匠/艺匠”），继而扩展为近似词汇表的目录，汇集在吠陀用语中“bahula”（多见、常见）的 Unādi 派生或按传统归类的词形。章中亦指出一处文本不稳定，诸传本读法互异，显示对 pāṭha-bheda（异读、传抄分歧）的文献学自觉与对单一读法限度的认识。其主体如简明的 nighaṇṭu 式“词义映射”：提供动物、亲属、地名、器物与抽象德性等术语的惯用形式，以助语法推导与义理理解。在阿耆尼(Agneya)的框架中，此等技术知识以成就法(dharma)，使祭仪、学修与文治之用语更为精确。
