anūjji

 In Sanskrit, "Anūjji" (अनूज्जि) is a Vedic term meaning 'to be victorious after' or 'one who triumphs subsequently,' as used in the Vājasaneyi Saṃhitā (Vāj.2.15).

Definition and Context

Anūjji is derived from the verbal root ud-√ji, with the prefix anu-, forming

a verbal expression that appears in the Vedic texts, specifically in the 

Vājasaneyi Saṃhitā and Kātyāyana-Śrauta-Sūtra. In its grammatical

form, it can be an aorist subjunctive singular, indicating a victorious 

action following another event, as in the phrase: 

"अग्नीषोमयोरुज्जितिमनूज्जेषम्" (agnīṣomayorujjitimanūjjeṣam), which

translates to "to be victorious after Agni-Soma" rituals or 

actions
