Not because of a compound: tada (तद), an element, and a statement.

Where it sits

In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. paśāvapīti (पशावपीति) from 10.1.19 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).

Split: na (न) + tada-bhūta-vacanāt (तद-भूत-वचनात्)
