``direct, stretch, attain" : -.r"nga (RV); bha~nj, bhanakti [Perf.:
babha~nja] ``break" : bha"nga; yuj, yunakti ``join" : -yu"nga;
ra(~)j, rajyati / ra~njati [Perf.: rara~nja] ``color; be delighted":
ra"nga; sa(~n)j, sajati [Perf.: sasa~nja] ``hang" : sa"nga;
sva(~)nj, svajate ``embrace" : -sva"nga.
