This chapter speaks on coalescences on preceding words ending with consonants
Preceding verbal noun ending in [nj], whether in case or non case relation, coalesces with [u]-suffix and with augmentation of the succeeding word having hard-consonant-initial. 297/1
Adding suffix [u] will remain even before the words having [nj], [n,], [m] and [v] initial. 298/2
Words with [nj]-ending also coalesce in the same way in non-case relation. 299/3
In case relation, suffix-[u] will change into [a]. 300/4
The word [ve’rin,]=the back portion of a body, elides its last consonant in cases (and coalesces with nasal-augmentation of the succeeding hard consonant) 301/5
The nasal augmentation, above, may also be hard consonant in cases. 302/6
The word with [m]-ending elides its ending-phoneme in coalescence of case-sense and coalesces doubling the initial hard-consonant in the succeeding word. 311/15
If the succeeding word comes with the initials [a] or [aa], the preceding word ending in [m] elides its ending two phoneme [a] and [m] and coalesces. [maram] + [adi] or [aadi] = [maraadi]. 312/16
Neutral-coalescence (doubling hard-consonant or blending nasal and its corresponding hard-consonant) is also applicable to the preceding word that denotes a place. [kul’am]=pond + [karai]=bank = [kul’kkarai] or [kul’angarai]. 313/17
Tree-name [illam] coalesces ass that of tree-name [visai]. 314/18
In non-case sense the ending consonant [m] changes into nasal-consonant corresponding to the initial hard-consonant of the succeeding word. 315/19
The coalescence of preceding word [agam]=inside and the succeeding word [kai]=hand will end in [angai] according to learners (some elisions in the preceding word). 316/20
The preceding word [ilam]=destitute and the succeeding word [padu]=happen coalesce with their natural form. 317/21
Counting number [aayiram]=thousand coalesces with the empty-morpheme [aththu]. 318/22
The above word, even it comes with counting prefix will coalesces in the same way as above. 319/23
The word before the words denoting the measurement of capacity and weight coalesces with norm applicable to case-relation-coalescence. 320/24
The words [e’llaar]=all of them and [e’lliir]=all of you coalesce with empty-morpheme [tham] and [n,um] respectively, in case-relation, as the norm defined in one previous chapter [e’llaarthammaiyum], [e’lliirn,ummaiyum]. 321/25
In non-case relation, the above words coalesce with their natural form but with [um]-empty-particle suffix. 322/26
The word [e’llaam]=all coalesces as spoken in one previous chapter. The [um]-empty-particle suffix is not added in-between the two words, but after the succeeding word, as [e’llaak kur’iyavum]=all the short things], in both case and non-case sense. 323/27
In the above coalescence, the changing of [m] to the corresponding hard-consonant, may be to the corresponding nasal-consonant of the succeeding hard-consonant. 324/28
If the word [e’llaam], denotes the part of man-kind, coalesces as defined in the previous chapter (6), as [e’llaan,ngaiyum]=all of our hands. 325/29
The word [n,um]=yours coalesces with nasal augmentation of the hard consonant of the succeeding word [n,unje’vi]=your ear, 326/30
Word [n,iiyir] may also stand as [n,iiir] in cases. 327/31
Verbal nouns coalesce with the norm pertaining to them (along with euphonic suffix [u] in-between); [se’m] + [kadithu] = [se’mmuk kadithu]; = metal-art is hard. 328/32
These words [iim]=crematory fire, [kam]=art work with metal and [urum]=thunder coalesce as above. 329/33
The latter two of the above three coalesce with the empty morpheme [akku] as suffix, in case-relation. 330/34
The [m]-ending shortens before [v] consonant. 331/35
The name that denotes a day of a month ending in [m] coalesces with two empty morphemes [aththu] and [aan]. In coalescence ending consonant [m] elides. 332/36
