  The Yugapad-Way Of Using Words: How a Linguistic Taboo Became a Crucial Literary Strategy
• Creator:
  Pontillo, Tiziana
• Description:
  As K ātyāyana emphasizes while commenting on the ekaśeṣa-rules, words apply per object. Consequently,no word should be capable of conveying more than one object. By contrast not only doesparonomasia, the so-called śleṣa, break the one-to-one relation between the śabda- and artha-levelsof language; there are also grammatical rules which look like deviations from the naturally expectedcause-effect relation between word forms and their meanings. T he ekaśeṣa-rule represents one of theseexceptions, since some parts of the artha are comprehensible, even without employing the word-formdenoting them, such as mātṛ in the dual noun pitarau, meaning ‘mother and father’ rather than ‘the twofathers’. P atañjali already mentions an intriguing option in the use of śabdas, when he notes that a wordform can merely convey its primary denotation, such as candra denoting the ‘moon’, or can expresssomething that is ‘like something else’, such as candra conveying the sense of a ‘face like a moon’.These exceptions are reconsidered here within the framework of the “yugapad-expression”, which ishow Bhartṛhari defines one of the two language options (the other one being kramaḥ ‘sequence’), anoption realised when a single word simultaneously conveys more than one meaning, but an optionwhose use is discouraged.Technical (ritual and grammatical) speculations on simultaneity as an exception to the bi-unique relationshipbetween a cause and its effect date back to the 2nd to 3rd centuries BC. N onetheless, grammariansinsist on excluding these extreme applications of meaning extension; only the late kāvyālaṃkāraśāstra-authors extol the virtues of the phenomenon. T he paper focuses on the trajectory that might havebeen followed in the intervening changes.
