Bahu-vrlhi or relative compounds are similarly formed. When 
formed of an adjective and a substantive, the adjective is usually 
put last (iii. 13). Examples are 
*re-4s yad a -bad u (not sre-4^ yad®-bad®, as we might expect), 
big-bellied, Skr. brhad-udara , quasi udara-brhat.

When one member of the compound is a numeral, it is put first, 
du~wahar u , occurring every two years. 
thus

Alliterative compounds (which are always feminine) are also 
classed as bahu-vrihis by l9vara-kaula (iii. 14) ; thus 
thol a -thol , mutual pushing with horns. 
3^-3^ tap a -taph, mutual kicking. 
3^ thfik a -thilkh, mutual pushing with horns. 
cap a -cdph , tooth against tooth.
