### CC Adi 16.76

> ‘শ্রী’-শব্দে, ‘লক্ষ্মী’-শব্দে — এক বস্তু উক্ত ।\
> পুনরুক্তপ্রায় ভাসে, নহে পুনরুক্ত ॥৭৬॥

> 'śrī'-śabde, 'lakṣmī'-śabde—eka vastu ukta\
> punar-ukta-prāya bhāse, nahe punar-ukta

*śrī-śabde*—by the word *śrī*; *lakṣmī-śabde*—by the word *lakṣmī*; *eka vastu*—one thing; *ukta*—is indicated; *punar-ukta-prāya*—almost repetition; *bhāse*—appears; *nahe*—but actually it is not; *punar-ukta*—repetition.

**"Although the words 'śrī' and 'lakṣmī' convey the same meaning and are therefore almost redundant, they are nevertheless not redundant.**
