Sanskrit

I am learning Sanskrit using the excellent ‘Sankrit for Beginners’ guide on learnsanskrit.org. I downloaded, printed and worked through the guide over Christmas, my photos show some of my work. I have covered vowels – basic, short, long, semivowels and compound vowels. I worked on the first 25 consonants and I love the scheme for pronunciation (figure 6). The final lesson I completed was about anusvāra and visarga the “after-sound” and “release”.
