Explanation:

The Prakrits (/ˈprɑːkrɪt/; Early Brahmi Sanskrit: , prākṛta;[3] Devanagari Sanskrit: प्राकृत, prākṛta; Shauraseni: pāuda; Jain Prakrit: pāua; Kannada: pāgada) are a group of vernacular Middle Indo-Aryan languages used in India from around the 3rd century BCE to the 8th century CE.[4][5] The term Prakrit is usually applied to the middle period of Middle Indo-Aryan languages, excluding earlier inscriptions and the later Pali.[6] The Prakrits were used contemporaneously with the prestigious Classical Sanskrit of higher social classes.[7] Prākṛta literally means "natural", as opposed to saṃskṛta, which literally means "constructed" or "refined".[6]
