Learn Sanskrit

Sanskrit is an ancient and classical language of India in which ever first book of the world Rigveda was compiled. The Vedas are dated by different scholars from 6500 B.C. to 1500 B.C. Sanskrit language must have evolved to its expressive capability prior to that. It is presumed that the language used in Vedas was prevalent in the form of different dialects. It was to some extent different from the present Sanskrit. It is termed as Vedic Sanskrit. Each Veda had its book of grammar known as Pratishakhya. The Pratishakhyas explained the forms of the words and other grammatical points. Later, so many schools of grammar developed. During this period a vast literature -Vedas, Brahmana-Granthas, Aranyakas, Upanishads and Vedangas had come to existence which could be termed as Vedic Literature being written in Vedic Sanskrit.


Panini (500 B.C.) was a great landmark in the development of Sanskrit language. He, concising about ten grammar schools prevalent during his time, wrote the master book of grammar named Ashtadhyayi which served as beacon for the later period. Literary Sanskrit and spoken Sanskrit both followed Panini’s system of language. Today the correctness of Sanskrit language is tested upon the touchstone of Panini’s Ashtadhyayee.



Sanskrit is said to belong to Indo – Aryan or Indo Germanic family of languages which includes Greek, Latin and other alike languages. William Jones, who was already familiar with Greek and Latin, when came in contact with Sanskrit, remarked that Sanskrit is more perfect than Greek, more copious than Latin and more refined than either. He said – “Sanskrit is a wonderful language”. It is noteworthy that though ancient and classical, Sanskrit is still used as medium of expression by scholars throughout India and somewhere in other parts of the world e.g. America, and Germany. Sanskrit is included in the list of modern Indian Languages in the eighth schedule of the constitution of India.

Very good app to learn basic Sanskrit. The ads are a bit much, however, you can choose to switch off the internet and the ads won't disturb. I thoroughly enjoyed going through the contents as it reminded me of my school time. Thank you for developing this wonderful app. I hope you will keep adding more content and also introduce a paid version of the app for an ad free experience.

So useful app. Thanks for making it😍, no complain for this app but it would be more better if in this we can hear the pronunciation of sanskrit

I have no words for this awesome app , very helpful ,you might get little difficulty in between but reading english then reading sanskrit you may understand👍🤧😄🙏

Very good for beginners.. I personally found it very useful.. And the new updated version is way more explanatory.. Just feels like textbook ... Each word's pronunciation is mentioned over there which made it more easy to read and that's the best part of this application..I would definitely suggest this application to all the Sanskrit learners.. 😍😍❤️❤️🙏🙏

Great Work... if pronouncing is also included then it would be superb ( as u know every letter has its own high n lows, so it would be much healpful to learn with accurate pronunciation ). Thanks for the app

Wow it's perfect app to learn sunskrit. From the basic to grammer. I will share it definitely and I have one suggestion pls. Following are the suggestions:- 1:- pls add a button to remove add by paying some money 2:- it will be better to Add user login and account creation. 3:- It will be good to change the app name because there are a lot of apps naming same as yours that's why it will be better to Rename it according to you. Thankyou

It doesn't "teach" you Sanskrit, it provides you notes. You should learn by yourself, since it is not at all interactive. It's like giving you a notebook of a Sanskrit beginner student, and asking you to learn it. So yeah, if you're good at that, go ahead. As for me, I need a more interactive and interesting way to learn and remember.

Pri. M. S. Jan 26, 2022     

Outstanding app! From this app it is very easy to learn sanskrit.i really recommend this app to the Sanskrit learners

Utk. M. Jan 19, 2022     

Please add like a thing that will pronounce it when we tap on that option.

Minibar advertisement all on a sudden occupies full screen, plays and stays until crossed off. Useless. 8/2: Still the same click bait, screen hijacking all over the app.

Bal. R. Dec 30, 2020     

It is OK if you like learning from word-lists and flash cards. Not much actual teaching or exercises except these methods.

Gan. D. Jun 14, 2020     

App is very good. For a beginner very helpful and user friendly. Frequency of advertisements is a bit disturbing.

Ses. D. Jan 8, 2022     

Very good app for Sanskrit beginners. Easy to use as reference hand book or to review. Appreciate the effort to provide a learning app, which is easy to use and no errors.

No. o. Aug 16, 2021     

English is my first and only spoken/written language, and my experience with this app is that it seems to be more aimed at those who already know Bengali or Hindi (I think?), as there is no audio to play in order to hear the pronunciation of Sanskrit words, even when written in the English alphabet (which not all are). The second intro has no pronunciation guide at all, so I have no idea how to pronounce any of it. Before long, lessons have no English at all, so no idea what I'm looking at.

Kri. C. Aug 15, 2021     

It is the best app I have come through. It's easy, well organized and the notes or lesson are in hindi which make us comfortable to read and learn.

Hari om, Best sanskrit app. Uttama. I am really greatful to the makers of this app. I had a basic course in sanskrit and later this app really helped me in understanding sanskrit further. One request to the makers if they can include, audio as well for understanding sanskrit pronunciation in a better manner. Dhanyavaadaha 🙏

Nag. M. Jan 29, 2022     

Very Nice tool to learn Sanskrit !!!

Dr. A. S. I. Feb 18, 2020     

Very good job. Could you include the other लकारा: too like लिट् विधिलिङ्ग् लोट् etc. That would be great. Also a little more emphasis on commonly used conversational sentences. Overall wonderful work

s. j. Sep 9, 2020     

Clicked a link and a full screen ad showed up. Waited for a long time but it would not go away. And no... There was no way to close that ad and study sanskrit.

San. S. May 30, 2020     

Very very well drafted app. Sanskrit was never this easy to me. I am getting hang of it and will try out to construct sentences. Congratulations to the team on creating a good app. I wld recommend to others.

Sar. L. Dec 22, 2020     

Best sanskrit learning app. But need some improvements, there should be detailed information like numbers are till 100 they should be increased and some slight changes. But overall amazing app. I will recommend for beginners to download this app. Thanks for your reply but remember to update the app.

Sup. S. Aug 2, 2020     

Great app I really wanted to learn Sanskrit to read the scriptures but general intro 2 onwards the pronunciation is quite difficult to get as there is no English guide and I am primarily learning through English. Great app tho I really recommend for Sanskrit learners. Five stars from me

Dip. B. Nov 4, 2020     

Its really a wonderful app for beginers,but it should be improved and full information should be given of every lesson., For example, the numbers are given till hundred only, but are upto millions.... Hope it will be improved by this this app will gain popularity.

Sou. C. Jan 17, 2019     

It is one of the best app honestly speaking I don't review apps normally but in this app I just can't hold and wait myself to review it well my so called modern Indian brothers and sisters rather than learning other languages first learn your own language I am also a victim of the English language so please the parents who have the new born child and babies please help them to learn Sanskrit it will help them in the future thank you

I absolutely love this app. I am so excited to know sanaskrit, and this app teaches everything in a perfect way for me. My favorite application. Thank you, from a bharatanatyam dancer.

Ris. K. Jul 31, 2020     

Very nice app. I wanted such an app. It is very nice for spoken Sanskrit. But, if it would be gamified with levels, it would be better.
