The second affixes are added mainly to the object of a root that means the doer (see karmaNidvitIyA). See also uses of the second endings .

In inria reader, these three affixes go by the nickname of " accusative". So if you type vRkSam into inria and it says "vRkSa m sg acc", the " sg acc" means that am was added. So, vRkSa is a m nounbase, and when we add am to it, we get vRkSam. The codes are --

am = sg acc

au = du acc

zas = pl acc

Important advice for beginners: never use the fourth to translate an English "to" into Sanskrit. That will almost always fail. For instance, when saying "I went to the beach" in Sanskrit, the beach gets second, never fourth.
