Beginner Sanskrit for Hindi Speakers


This course is aimed at beginners seeking to obtain reading skills in Sanskrit, often called the mother of all languages. Indeed Sanskrit is the root of most North Indian languages and has significantly influenced many in the Indo-European family. This course will introduce the students to the declension and verbal conjugation system in Sanskrit. Primarily aimed at students interested in pursuing further specialised instruction in India, this course will be taught strictly using the Devanagari script. As the course progresses, students will gradually acquire the ability to deconstruct the rich language of written Sanskrit into root forms that can then be found in a dictionary.
