WIth atmost respect, how are these discussions anyway related to Ramanuja's or 
Manavala Mamuni's message?? I guess this forum is to encourage each other on 
Bagavathvishayam, prapatti to Lord Sriman Narayana and glorifying the leelas of 
the Lord and his devotees.

Adi ShankarA's words spring to my mind:

"samprApte sannihite kAle
nahi nahi rakShati dukrunjkaraNe"

Nothing personal.

Dasan,

Kidambi Soundararajan.

Dear Sri mahavishNu sharman:

Namaste. There was a deviation from the main thread from yajur-vedic 
legends to sanskrit grammatical syntax. Rest assured that I have no 
intentions to re-write samskrta vyAkaraNam and I very well know the 
differences between tenuis, tenuis aspirata, media, media aspirata 
and nasalis forms of labial phonemes, despite the large gap (more 
than a decade) between now and my formal sanskrit education.

Having said this, "trishtuB" (or its variants trStuB, triStubh etc.) 
are what I encountered in my madhyandina as well as kaNva shatapatha 
brAhmaNa texts. Moreover, this is the term that I consistently saw in 
Max Mueller's translation of upanishads & portions of Rg mandalas, 
Buhler's translation of dharma sUtras, A.B. Keith's translation of 
black-yajus samhita and various European indoligists' books & 
articles. I am willing to agree that I am wrong along with all the 
European indologists.

I also forwarded my doubt to my acquaintance who is a trivedi, vedic 
scholar and sanskrit scholar (recently participated in a sOma yAga in 
Maharashtra). I am reproducing portion of his reply. Inferences can 
be drawn at one's conveniences.

"...Correct nominative singular form that you will find in any 
dictionary or vedic text is triShTubh. You may find the form triSTup 
only in sandhi as triSTupchandas- this is the form in the vedic 
anukramaNikas.
You may encounter a variant sandhi in AV chandas tarpaNaM mantra eg:
triShTubgAyatryuShNikanuShtubjagati ...

So your guy is wrong..."

Best wishes & regards,
KK
