Sanskrit is one of the oldest known languages over thousands of years. It is also called “Dev Vani” the language of gods as it is said that Brahma introduced this language to the Sages of celestial bodies. It is believed that the Sanskrit language came from the Indo-European language family of the Indian subcontinent.

Sanskrit is the sacred language of Hinduism, the language of classical Hindu philosophy, and of historical texts of Buddhism and Jainism. It was a link language in ancient and medieval South Asia, and upon transmission of Hindu and Buddhist culture to Southeast Asia, East Asia, and Central Asia in the early medieval era, it became a language of religion and high culture, and of the political elites in some of these regions. As a result, Sanskrit had a lasting impact on the languages of South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Asia, especially in their formal and learned vocabularies
