Sanskrit is a very interesting language in terms of grammar. I have studied Sanskrit for two years and I found it intriguing. The five points I would like to mention are: In any language, there's singular and plural, in Sanskrit it's singular,dual and plural. In any language, there are different pronouns and nouns for male and female only. In Sanskrit , we have nouns and pronouns for male, female and neutral. The prepositions come with the word itself, so even if you jumble up your sentence, it will still have the same meaning. You can form very complex and interconnected words using sandhis and samas. The same sentence can have a totally different meaning. Also you can write an entire sentence in a sing…le word. read less
