( Sanskrit) Sanskrit (???????? ???? sa?sk?ta vak, for short ????????? sa?sk?tam), is an historical Indo-Aryan language, one of the liturgical languages of Hinduism and Buddhism,^[2] and one of the 22 official languages of India.^[3] It is a classical language of India, others being Tamil, Telugu and Kannada.

The pre-Classical form of Sanskrit is known as Vedic Sanskrit, with the language of the Rigveda being the oldest and most archaic stage preserved, its oldest core dating back to as early as 1500 BCE.^[5] This qualifies Rigvedic Sanskrit as one of the oldest attestations of any Indo-Iranian language, and one of the earliest attested members of the Indo-European language family, the family which includes English and most European languages.^[6]

The corpus of Sanskrit literature encompasses a rich tradition of poetry and drama as well as scientific, technical, philosophical and Hindu religious texts. Sanskrit continues to be widely used as a ceremonial language in Hindu religious rituals in the forms of hymns and mantras. Spoken Sanskrit is still in use in a few traditional institutions in India, and there are many attempts at revival.

The Sanskrit verbal adjective sa?sk?ta- may be translated as "put together, well or completely formed, refined, highly elaborated".^[7] It is derived from the root sa?(s)kar- "to put together, compose, arrange, prepare",^[8] where sa?- "together" (as English same) and (s)kar- "do, make". The language referred to as sa?sk?ta vak "the cultured language" has by definition always been a "sacred" and "sophisticated" language, used for religious and learned discourse in ancient India, and contrasted with the languages spoken by the people, prak?ta- "natural, artless, normal, ordinary". It is also called deva-bha?a meaning the "divine language" or the "language of devas or demigods".
