praśasāsyābhidhāna (प्रशसास्याभिधान).
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 9. Ūha (ऊह): adapting mantras and details when they are transferred. The line is short. vani-ṣṭhu-sannidhānāt (वनि-ष्ठु-सन्निधानात्) from 9.4.22 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
