Sir William Jones is the important scholar who studied Sanskrit and found it to be the most scientific language in the world.
Sir William Jones and Sanskrit
- He was a British philologist and ancient India expert who served as a puisne judge on the Supreme Court of Judicature in Fort William, Bengal.
- He is most well-known for proposing that Indo-European languages like the languages of Sanskrit, Greek, and Latin have a link.
- He proposed that Sanskrit, Latin, and Greek shared a common ancestor, and his results sparked the study of comparative linguistics in the early nineteenth century.
Sanskrit, he claimed, was a language with words that were written exactly as they were spoken or thought, as well as complex grammar and syntax. To linguists all across the world, his remarkable discovery was as significant in the field of language evolution as Galileo, Copernicus, and Charles Darwin's scientific discoveries.
