Gautama Buddha and Mahavira preached in the language of masses so that their messages and teachings could be communicated and interpreted by even the last person in the society at that time.
Explanation:
- The teachings of Mahavira were in the Prakrit language and that of the Gautama Buddha in Pali.
- They chose the language spoken by common people in order to reach them easily without the help of a translator.
- Also, they had challenged the authority of Brahmins and king so they did not use Sanskrit as it was the language of state and religion.
