An ancient Indo-European language that was the formal written and literary language of India, used for religious texts and classical literature.
From Sanskrit 'saṃskṛta,' meaning 'refined' or 'perfected.' The word literally means 'put together well,' describing the language as carefully constructed and refined.
Sanskrit is one of the oldest documented languages and linguists use it like a fossil record to understand how all Indo-European languages (including English) evolved from a common ancestor thousands of years ago.
