updated 3-30-99 Sanskrit (Indo-Hittite) is an Old Indic language. It belongs to the Indic sub-branch of the Indo-Iranian sub-branch of the Indo-European branch of the Indo- Hittite family of languages. Sanskrit is the religious language of Hinduism, and of some of the offshoots of Hinduism, including Hare Krishna. The oldest form of Sanskrit is called Vedic (Sanskrit); it was spoken from 1200-800 B.C., and was meticulously described by priests so that later generations would know how to speak it. Most famous of these grammars was that by Panini, composed about 500 B.C. Classical Sanskrit is generally dated from 800-400 B.C. Sanskrit is still in use today for religious purposes, but remains essentially unchanged since Panini's time, because the effort has been made not to deviate from the ancient forms as he set them down. Sanskrit is written with the devanagari syllabary. ("Devanagari" means "of the Gods".) 294.3925 Abhayadatta A147c.Ed [Caturasitisiddhapravrtti.
