गुणमुख्यविशेषाच् च

The line
Because of a compound: a quality, primary, and a difference and.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. kapāla-vikāraḥ (कपाल-विकारः) from 10.1.38 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: guṇa-mukhya-viśeṣāt (गुण-मुख्य-विशेषात्) + ca (च)
