Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 11 / 11.2.41
आम्नायवचनं तद्वत्
āmnāyavacanaṃ tadvat
The line
A compound: āmnāya (आम्नाय), and a statement, like that.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 11. One performance serving many purposes, and when the acts stay separate. The line is short. avācyatvāt (अवाच्यत्वात्) from 11.2.40 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: āmnāya-vacanaṃ (आम्नाय-वचनं) + tadvat (तद्वत्)
