SYNONYMS
dvitīya śabda — the word dvitīya (“second”); vidheya — the unknown; tāhā — that; paḍila — joined; samāse — in the compound word; lakṣmīra — with Lakṣmī; samatā — equality; artha — meaning; karila — became; vināśe — lost.
TRANSLATION
“Because the word ‘dvitīya’ [‘second’] is the unknown, in its combination in this compound word the intended meaning of equality with Lakṣmī is lost.
