Grammar of the Sanskrit Language

Sanskrit grammar comprises rules for constructing sentences, similar to other languages, but is notably systematic and intricate. It features eight parts of speech: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, conjunctions, prepositions, and interjections. Nouns have gender (masculine, feminine, neuter) and can be declined based on case (nominative, accusative, etc.), while verbs are conjugated according to tense and mood. The language employs a rich system of prefixes and suffixes that modify meaning. Sanskrit's grammar is foundational to many Indian languages and is known for its precision, making it a key subject in linguistic studies and ancient texts.
