vi-sarjanīya | वि-सर्जनीय | m. (cf. vi-sarga | वि-सर्ग | above) N. of a symbol in grammar (usually marked by two perpendicular dots [:] representing a hard and distinctly audible aspiration ; it generally, but not always, occurs at the end of a word, often taking the place of final s and r; it is called Visarjanīya either from its liability to be ‘rejected’ or from its being pronounced with a full ‘emission’ of breath, or from its usually appearing at the ‘end’ of a word or sentence; Paṇḍits in some parts of India seem to pronounce a vowel after it, e.g. naraḥ | नरः | like naraha | नरह |, agniḥ | अग्निः | like agnihi | अग्निहि |), Prāt.; Pāṇ. &c.
