Set And Anit RootsThe terms set and anit refer to classes of roots in Sanskrit grammar. In the terminology of Panini, se'ṭ (from sa-i'ṭ, Aṣṭādhyāyī 1.2.18, 6.4.121)) means "with (see copulative a) an i-sound), and an-i'ṭ' (Aṣṭādhyāyī 3.1.45, 6.1.188, 6.4.51, 7.2.61) means "without (see privative a) an i-sound". The i sound in question is a phoneme i that appears in certain morphological circumstances for certain, lexically defined roots, regularly continuing PIE Laryngeals. See also: Aṣṭādhyāyī.
