Prakrit

Etymology

Prakrit verb set
𑀠𑀮𑀇 (ḍhalaï)
𑀠𑀸𑀮𑀇 (ḍhālaï)

    Probably inherited from Sanskrit ध्वर॑ति (dhvárati), from the root ध्वृ (dhvṛ), with unexpected retroflexion. Kashmiri 𑆃𑇋𑆝𑆫𑆶𑆤 (ạḍarun) / ॳडरुन (ạḍarun) / أڈَرُن (ạḍarun) from *𑀆𑀟𑁆𑀠𑀭𑀢𑀺 (*āḍḍharati) points to original -𑀭𑁆- (-r-). But also compare the reconstructed *𑀟𑀸𑀮𑀇 (*ḍālaï, pours, puts) and *𑀠𑀼𑀮𑀇 (*ḍhulaï, bends, falls).
