(Replace /hi''' with /luk) after an u उ-ender affix which does not follow a cluster.

This applies after /znu and /u.

**kuru- कुरुॱ + /loT /sip
→ **kuru- कुरुॱ + /hi''' by serhyapicca
→ **kuru कुरु "do it!" by this rule

zru श्रु + /loT /sip
→ **zRNu- शृणुॱ + /loT /sip, with /znu
→ zRNu- शृणुॱ + /hi''' by serhyapicca
→ zRNu शृणु by this rule
→ !**zRNu शृणु "listen!"

As in—

yathecchasi tathA kuru यथेच्छसि तथा कुरु "fais ce que voudras"

That /hi''' also poofs after a अ, by < atoheH.

Why do we say "unless /znu follows a cluster"?
