YUDDHA KĀṆḌAM

हर्षनिःस्वन m.

Answer 1

हर्षसमुद्भूतो निःस्वनो IS JUST AN EXPANDED VERSION OF THE FOLLOWING WORD:
\
हर्षनिःस्वन m. idem or ‘m. a shout of joy
\
THE WHOLE IDEA THAT निःस्वन WOULD MEAN ‘a shout’ IS BIZARRE. IT DOES ALSO MEAN =
निःस्वन mfn. soundless
- THE WAY GOD INTENDED.
LVCVS A NON LVCENDO !
NO. IT’S JUST A DIFFERENT WAY OF TAKING THE निस् - INSTEAD OF ‘without’ IT MEANS ‘outwardly’ (?)
