Where it sits
In Nyāya (न्याय) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 5. The false rejoinders, called jāti (जाति), and the points on which a debate is lost. The words of this line are the ones to keep. A shorter line after this one may leave them unsaid.
Split: anuvāde (अनुवादे) + tu (तु) + apunaruktaṃ (अपुनरुक्तं) + śabda-abhyāsāt (शब्द-अभ्यासात्) + artha-viśe-ṣopa-patteḥ (अर्थ-विशे-षोप-पत्तेः)
