Numerals take i instead of a in the Agent and connected cases,, e.g., 
^fff sati sutin , by sevens (ii. i. 5). 
If a nouu ends in ^ 3 r ur [or un\, the u is changed to a in all 
cases except the nominative singular, e.g., ivcidur , a monkey; nom. 
pi. wadar; instr. wadarau sytin (32). [So infinitives 
like stfTO karun ; acc. karanas ]. 
If in the case of masculine nouns of the first declension the final 
consonant is preceded by the vowel w, that ii becomes o, in all cases of the 
plural except the nominative, but remains unchanged in the singular 
and in the nominative plural. The following masculine words ending 
in consonants do not, however, change this u (35).
