ABSTRACT

Sanskrit is an ancient and complex language that has been written in various scripts, including Devanagari, Brahmi, and other ideographic scripts. This paper explores the role of ideographic language in learning Sanskrit, with a particular focus on Devanagari and other scripts commonly used to write the language. We argue that ideographic scripts provide a unique advantage in learning Sanskrit by allowing learners to understand the language's structure, grammar, and cultural context. We also examine the challenges associated with learning Sanskrit in an ideographic script and the potential of technology in promoting its use in language education.
