Sanskrit

An ancient Indo-European language of India and the holy language of Hinduism. It shares connections with many languages in Europe and Asia, for example, English, German, Bulgarian, Russian, Greek, and Latin.

It has influenced many unrelated languages in its area as well, for example, the Dravidian languages have a significant amount of influence from Sanskrit. Sanskrit is the ancestor of many modern Indo-Aryan languages such as Hindi, Marathi, and Odia. Sanskrit is often credited as the mother of all Indo-European languages and even languages unrelated to it, but this is not the case. Sanskrit has no native script but is usually written today in the Devanagari script.

Sanskrit

Sanskrit is a historical Indo-Aryan language and the primary liturgical language of Hinduism and Buddhism. Today, it is listed as one of the 22 scheduled languages of India and is an official language of the Indian state of Uttarakhand.

Classical Sanskrit is the standard register as laid out in the grammar of Pāṇini, around the 4th century BCE. Its position in the cultures of Greater India is akin to that of Latin and Greek in Europe and it has significantly influenced most modern languages of the Indian subcontinent, particularly in India, Pakistan and Nepal.

The pre-Classical form of Sanskrit is known as Vedic Sanskrit, with the language of the Rigveda being the oldest and most archaic stage preserved, its oldest core dating back to as early as 1500 BCE. This qualifies Rigvedic Sanskrit as one of the oldest attestations of any Indo-Iranian language, and one of the earliest attested members of the Indo-European language family, the family which includes English and most European languages.
