TITLE Implication of the Sanskrit Language in the 21st Century
ABSTRACT Sanskrit is an old language that belongs to the Indo-Aryan group of the Indo-European language family. It is an ancient language and started being used in South Asia about 4,500 years ago. It is an old and sacred language used in Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism. The main goals of this paper are to look into how practical and applicable the Sanskrit language is in the 21st century; to explore the difficulties that the Sanskrit language is facing in the 21st century; and to find out the different government policies that aim to bring back the use of Sanskrit in the 21st century. The research used secondary data, which was gathered from government reports, international publications, research papers, published articles, and online resources. A variety of qualitative analysis methods were applied to understand the different ways Sanskrit is being used and its importance in specific contexts. Sanskrit is important for several reasons, such as its role in Indian culture, the way it has influenced other languages, and its use in science and philosophy. It is the main language for Indian classical art, music, dance, literature, and religion. It helps us understand India's rich history and gives a special view into the country's intellectual past. It is the sacred language of Hinduism and is also used in Buddhism and Jainism. Sanskrit has had a big effect on languages in South, Southeast, and East Asia, especially in official and academic settings. It is famous for its grammar and sentence structure, which make it great for building intellectual and language skills. Even though Sanskrit is called a dead language because no one speaks it as their main language, it was once crucial in ancient India, where knowing it showed someone's social class and level of education. Sanskrit is important in Indian culture because it is used a lot in religious texts, especially in Hinduism, and most of the modern Indian languages come from Sanskrit. Some of the challenges in teaching Sanskrit include not enough teaching materials, a shortage of teachers, and a lack of digital resources.
