Misconception 1. It is a language used only by priests.

 

Fact: Not really. It is used in many places by many people. Check the mottos of several govt institutions.

 

Misconception 2. It is a dead language.

 

Fact: Well, check your name and it should be mostly Sanskrit.

 

Misconception 3. It isn’t spoken anymore.

 

Fact: Well, there are 14000+ people who speak in Sanskrit. One of the examples I know is my senior in my Engineering college.

 

Misconception 4. It isn’t relevant now.

 

Fact: If it isn’t relevant, why do u think they’re trying to use Sanskrit for super computers? Because, Sanskrit language is the most scientific. There are no silent letters. You write how you speak.

 

There are several misconceptions but these are the most worrying.
