According to the Var峁嘺ratnaprad墨pik膩 艢颈办峁Ｄ�, sandhi is a one type of combination (蝉补峁儁辞驳补). This 艢颈办峁Ｄ� classifies consonant groups into three parts and figuratively calls each combination respectively鈥�

1. 补测补辫颈峁囜笉补 an iron ball;
2. 奴谤峁嚹乸颈峁囜笉补 (a ball of wool);
3. 诲腻谤耻辫颈峁囜笉补 (a wooden ball).

According to this 艢颈办峁Ｄ� a consonant group in which a 鈥�Yama鈥� had occurred was compared to the combination equivalant to an iron ball鈥�

In this connection the observation of the Var峁嘺ratnaprad墨pik膩 艢颈办峁Ｄ� is interesting. It states that the combination of plosive + semi-vowel was lax and compares the combination to a wooden ball which can be broken easily.

This observation was more valid in the case of Vedic Sanskrit^[1], where words containing plosive + semi-vowel had under certain conditions doubles containing plosive + vowel + semi-vowel; e.g., 鈥�诲惫腻鈥� beside 鈥�诲耻腻鈥� But we also have to then take into account the fact that in Vedic manuscripts 鈥�adya鈥� was often transcribed 鈥�addya鈥�, but in the parallel development of the language it became 鈥�ajja鈥�. The connection between 鈥�d鈥� and 鈥�y鈥� was not broken in the division ad/dya through it may have been broken in the division add/ya; while in ajja the combination becomes much closer. These facts indicate that the combination was not so universally easy to break as was supposed by the 艢颈办峁Ｄ�.

According to the Var峁嘺ratnaprad墨pik膩 艢颈办峁Ｄ� a hissing fricative + nasal consonant, in which no Yamas were said to occur, was compared to a ball of wool^[2]. In the same connection there is to be found in the 驰腻箩帽补惫补濒办测补 艢颈办峁Ｄ�, a curious classification of consonant group according to the laxity or closeness of their combination.

This 艢颈办峁Ｄ� classifies consonant groups into seven parts^[3] and frguratively calls each combination respectively鈥�

1. An iron ball. 
2. A ball of clay. 
3. A ball of flame. 
4. A ball of wool.
5. A wooden ball. 
6. A ball of air. 
7. A ball of thunder.
