jashtva sandhi

jashtva sandhi (जश्त्व सन्धि) -

When the 1st vyanjana (consonant) of any 'varga' faces a vowel, soft consonant (except nasal (anunaasika)), the consonant is replaced by the 3rd vyanjana of its respective varga.

The examples below will make it more clearer -

वाक् + अर्थ = वागर्थ
क् + अ = ग

सम्यक् + उत्तरम् = सम्यगुत्तरम्
क् + उ = गु

अच् + अन्तम् = अजन्तम्
च् + अ = ज

कश्चित् + उद्यानवनम् = कश्चिदुद्यानवनम्
त् + उ = दु

कुर्यात् + रामः = कुर्याद्रामः
त् + रा + द्रा

सुप् + अन्तम् = सुबन्तम्
प् + अ = ब
