A touching article! I have enjoyed similar times with my grandpa. On the topic of Cobol, I simply don't understand why people hate it so much. It has a shallow learning curve like Python, is self-documenting enough that…
This is a shoddy article, and conflates unrelated issues. First, it wasn’t a software issue at all that grounded the plane. Second, Boeing has categorically said that MCAS
This has been an incredible discussion, thank you all for contributing. I hope my original point was made, which was that there is often bias when the western world talks about “ancient”, and I place the blame squarely…
Songuahkrito is not Samskruta but Bengali. So what’s your point?
You are almost completely wrong. How do you account for the precision of Panini as the previous commenter pointed out? How do you know to postulate that? There is NO other formalized grammar akin to Panini, so don’t…
It seems to me that you are proving my point.

I don't understand why an academic linguist is more qualified than a traditionally educated scholar in India, who has deep knowledge of the classics. I don't deny that there were likely some influences, but the care and…
How fossilized? While it is not used as an everyday language, there is a yet growing library of literature, and vigorous philosophical debate that happens in Samskruta. BTW, an unrelated rant, the other thing that…
In classical recitation, with ghanapatha and other techniques, I would expect that pronunciation is strict, meters are accounted for, and things have remained relatively unchanged in the way the Vedas and Upanishads are…
Could you elaborate please? How do you establish that?
You mean “What did ancient European languages sound like” perhaps? I would submit that Samskruta (NOT the anclicised Sanskrit) sounds exactly like how it did in ancient times. How come there is no discussion of that at…
