Here's how it breaks down:
* "thas" is the root word, meaning "that" or "it" (referring to a masculine object).
* "may" is an ending that indicates the dative case. The dative case signifies the indirect object of a verb, or the recipient of an action.
Therefore, "thasmay" means "to that (masculine) one" or "to it (masculine)."
Example:
* "Tasyasthasmāy etad dattam"
* Meaning: "This was given to that one."
It's important to remember that "thasmay" only functions as a component of a phrase and requires additional words to form a complete sentence.
