A little immature understanding of Sanskrit , Sanskrit
Wang Duo
Friends, learn from others, this is what my mother taught me when I was a child. It has been more than half a century now, and I have always kept it in my heart and dare not forget it.
In the past two days, I asked a friend "HTBB" who works in India and Pakistan about the origin of Sanskrit and Sanskrit. So I have the following comments:
"HTBB": After reading your explanation, I even came to this conclusion (not necessarily correct):
1. Sanskrit is more like ancient Chinese classical Chinese. Its main function is not for speaking, but for recording.
2. Sanskrit is a temple script, so it mainly records the ruler's rules and regulations , including religious classics and so on.
3. Sanskrit is very mature, has a large vocabulary, and affects many languages.
4. Can it be said that Sanskrit is the "classical form" of Tamil , or that it has been parallel to Tamil for a long time and influenced each other.
5. Sanskrit is likely to have many similarities with the languages of Mesopotamia , Ancient Egypt and other regions, including language structure and text forms. Or, it was born out of ancient scripts in these ancient civilizations, including Hebrew .
The above is my immature thinking, please criticize and correct me.
Thank you again for your wise explanation.
