√SI1 'fall'
present: S/Iyate etc. SIy/ante? derivatives: -SAyana Reckoned by the grammarians as present-system to √2Sad; and this is curiously supported by JB., which has (ii. 81) upaSIyate tasmAd upaSadam, and (ii. 82) avaSIyante tasmAc CadaH. So far as the meaning is concerned, it might well be a specialization of √2SI.
