Sanskrit The oldest language in the world, the language of gods, the mother of all languages, all these different names of Sanskrit. A language that is so grammatically perfect a language that is so rich in color and culture and a language called Sanskrit. This blog contains 5 easy slokas but before that you have to understand the significance of the Sanskrit and Why Sanskrit is Called as the Mother of All Language. Well it is Sanskrit (‘Samskrutam’) comes from samyak krutam(सम्यक् कृतम्). In Sanskrit, ‘samyak’ means perfect, well, complete, and ‘krutam’ means done.
Sanskrit : Mother of All Languages
Let’s ask a question to ourselves, everyone’s heard of Latin, Greek so why haven’t as any heard Sanskrit? This is a Situation that we currently face. The dilemma of a seemingly esoteric language. Now Think of Sanskrit, Latin and Greek as a “Big Three” that have brought so much good to the world over the past several millennia. They Shared so much in common, much more than anyone would expect.
For example take a look at the table.
| English | Sanskrit | Latin | Greek |
|---|---|---|---|
| Father | Pitr | Pater | Pater |
| Mother | Matr | Mater | Mater |
| three | trayas | treis | tres |
Three Fundamental words with the similar roots and pronunciations in Sanskrit Latin and Greek. So the first word we have Father, in Sanskrit the root is pitr (पितृ), in Latin Pater and the same applies for ancient Greek.
For Mother, we have root is Matr (मातृ) in Sanskrit, mater in Latin and Mater in ancient Greek and for three its root is trayas (त्रयस) in Sanskrit, treis in Latin and tres in Greek. Well this is a small proof as I have to explain the glory of Sanskrit but there are tons of research papers who claimed that Sanskrit is a of the oldest language in the world and not the oldest but Mother of all languages.
So Sanskrit specifically speaking has been instrumental in unlocking a wide variety of knowledge and research in areas such as psychology, linguistics, medicine, mathematics, philosophy and history and even other cultural tradition such as music and dance.
