Ekavibhakti (एकविभक्ति).—A pada having the same case in the various dissolutions of the compound word; e. g. the word कौशाम्बी (kauśāmbī) in the compound word निष्कौशाम्बिः (niṣkauśāmbiḥ), which stands only in the ablative case कौशाम्ब्याः (kauśāmbyāḥ), although the word निष्क्रान्त (niṣkrānta), which stands for the word निस् (nis), could be used in many cases. The word नियतविभक्तिक (niyatavibhaktika) is also used in the same sense.
