  • Sanskrit could be the uniting language of India. If people in India take advantage of it. Most of the regional languages come from Sanskrit or have a huge Sanskrit influence. It is easier for Indians to learn Sanskrit than English or some other regional language.

  • Both Pali and Prakrit are derived from Sanskrit and Pali uses the same alphabets. Pali has been in use since Buddha's time; you can think of Pali as a colloquial version and easier on the tongue. One of the literary works in Pali is Buddha's DHAMMAPADA. Usually kings spoke Sanskrit; womenfolk and others spoke Prakrit. One of the literary works in Prakrit is Vedanta Desikar's Achuta Shatakam (or Achua sa-a-a-am).
