 | | The earliest attestations of the group are in Vedic Sanskrit, the language used in the oldest scriptures of India, the foundational canon of Hinduism known as the Vedas. | | | However, although this preserved the integrity of written language for a long time, the spoken language continues to evolve, and by the sixth century, Sanskrit as a spoken language was rare, being by and large replaced by its descendants, the Prakrits. | | | This Indo-Aryan language is a combination of Persian and Arabic in its vocabulary with the grammar of the local dialects. |

| | India - Languages of India |
| | In spite of the profound influence of the Sanskrit language and Sanskritic culture on the Dravidian languages, a strong consciousness of the distinctness of Dravidian languages from Sanskrit remained. | | | Pali became the language of Theravada Buddhism; eventually it came to be identified exclusively with religious contexts. | | | Languages entering South Asia were "Indianized." Scholars cite the presence of retroflex consonants, characteristic structures in verb formations, and a significant amount of vocabulary in Sanskrit with Dravidian or Austroasiatic origin as indications of mutual borrowing, influences, and counterinfluences. |

| | Dead Sanskrit Was Always Dead [ The Sanskrit Language served merely as a Liturgical Language and was Never in Use by the Masses of the Population. | | | Similarly, the Brahmins of India realised that the Vedic and Vaishnava scriptures were in a variety of Old Indo-Aryan languages with the rise of the grave threats Jainism and Buddhism, both of which had a single standard theological language (Ardhamagadhi and Magadhi, respectively). | | | The Brahmins have invented a ludicrous theory, as per which all languages in the world are derived from Sanskrit. |

| | It was called Sam.skr.ta, Sanskrit, which means "prepared," "cultivated," "polished," "correct." The language based on Pân.ini can be called "Classical Sanskrit," and that of the Vedas "Vedic Sanskrit." Classical Sanskrit remained the language of religion, philosophy, and high literature in India for centuries, and survives today as the indispensible language of religion and serious scholarship. | | | This is also used with some modern languages, like Hindi, and is the source for many more, including the alphabets for Burmese, Thai, and Cambodian. | | | These new spoken languages are called "Prakrits," from Prâkr.ta, "natural," "ordinary," "common," "vulgar." The first examples of written Prakrit words are in Sanskrit texts where someone is speaking, e.g. |

| | Ergativity in Indo-Aryan |
| | The Sanskrit instrumental case marker is not the ancestor of the ergative in most of the modern Indo-Aryan languages and the true ancestor of modern forms such as ne/ni or le remains to be identified conclusively. | | | Language Contact Zakharyin (1979) ascribes the Urdu/Hindi ergative form ne to language contact with Tibeto-Burman, who use an ergative form na. | | | While most Indo-Aryan languages appear to follow this pattern by disallowing agreement with a non-nominative argument, some languages allow it. |
