Sandhi
Sandhi is a
term used in Hindi and Sanskrit grammar. Its meaning is to join, or to
unite two words
together. In this process sometimes the two words retain their original
form, but sometimes not, and at other times one cannot recognize which two
words were used to make this new word. It is similar to some
Samaas also.
For example, there are 3
words - Sat + Chit + Aanand
When we do Sandhi of them they become - Sachchidaanand
T of Sat become ch, T of Chit becomes D, and Aanand retains its form.
This is the Sandhi of these 3 words.
Sapt + Rishhi =
Saptarshi
