एषोऽहम्   sometimes used to give emphasis to the personal pronouns ( e.g., I, this very person here) or with omission of those pronouns ( e.g. एष त्वां स्वर्गं नयामि, I standing here will convey thee to heaven; एतौ प्रविष्टौ स्वः, we two here have entered)
एतद् एव हि मे धनम्   as the subject of a sentence it agrees in gender and number with the predicate without reference to the noun to be supplied ( e.g., for this [ scil. cow] is my only wealth, [MBh.])
एतद् गुरुषु वृत्तिः   but sometimes the neuter sing. remains ( e.g., this is the custom among गुरुs, [Mn. ii, 206])
एतद्   generally refers to what precedes, esp. when connected with इदम्, the latter then referring to what follows ( e.g. एष वै प्रथमः कल्पः अनुकल्पस् त्व् अयं ज्ञेयः, this before-mentioned is the principal rule, but this following may be considered a secondary rule, [Mn. iii, 147])
एष चैव गुरुर् धर्मो यम् प्रवक्ष्याम्य् अहं तव   it refers also to that which follows, esp. when connected with a relative clause ( e.g., this is the important law, which I will proclaim to you, [MBh.]), [RV.] &c. &c.
एतद्  n.  ind. in this manner, thus, so, here, at this time, now ( e.g. न॑ वा॑ उ एत॑न् म्रियसे, thou dost not die in this manner or by that, [RV. i, 162, 21]), [AV.]; [VS.]; &c.;
एतद्   [ cf. Zd. aêta; Old Pers. aita; Armen. aid; Osk. eiso.]
