Man, I wish the Indus Valley hieroglyphs are deciphered in our lifetime.
they would have deciphered and used it for their own benefit or neglected it because it did not benefit them.
I think they have been deciphered. Read it somewhere
Look up for Sue Sullivan and her deciphering system
She says that it is Sanskrit
@@b.m.5068 I think it would be closer to Tamil, which is older than Sanskrit. Cos it has now been proved that the Indus Valley civilization moved southwards in India towards Tamil Nadu.
That would unfold a world of ancient knowledge. We need another like Rakhal Das Banerjee.
Just imagine how many historical questions and mysteries time travel could solve.
It's physically impossible to travel back in time, although there are theories on how it can be achieved but that would require unimaginable levels of energy and technology which would require millions of years for humans to achieve.
Although I remember reading that New York Times said in an article in 1903 that it would take 1-10 million years for man to achieve technology to fly and 2 months later Wright Brothers invented airplane, we are just one breakthrough away from becoming intergalactic civilization, who knows maybe the next Einstein is sitting somewhere in the world looking at the sky and wondering why we see stars in the past.
@@caseyclover1647 most likely we need an alien material to achieve it.
Here is the thing we lack in India.
We are willing to build a god damn time machine and use it to go 'back' in time, just to prove a point.
The day we start thinking, to use that same time machine to go ahead of time, may be we can contribute to make this world better..
Just imagine how many historical questions and mysteries time travel already created! =P
@@karthikpaniyoor5348 that is an incredibly stupid way to think! People thought going to the moon was wasteful and stupid but the resulting technologies helped our civilization tremendously.
Going forward is physically possible and quite simple in theory anyways, you just have to travel as close to the speed of light as possible and time and distance will slow down considerably for you, meaning you could theoretically travel to the nearest star and back in a matter of months or even days but due to time dilation 4.5 years would have passed on earth, that is according to theory of relativity, this would however require unimaginable amounts of energy to reach close to light speed. Traveling back in time is currently considered impossible since you theoretically have to travel faster than light speed but that is impossible due to laws of physics as we currently understand them and if anyone could come up with a valid way to do that then I would say they would be the most important person in the history of mankind. Greatness isn't achieved by discarding impossible challenges.
As for India I've seen quite a few Indians boast about their scientific achievements but those same people don't even understand basic scientific concepts and are not proud of the achievement itself but rather of the fact that "we did it" Which is incredibly unhealthy way to think about science.
Glad you mentioned the the difference between Composed and Written. Many people still believe we have a 5000 year old copy of Rig veda in a museum.
Yes , the reason they used to heard that , as me used to believe that crap too.

When I hear the word,”Sanskrit” I said to myself,this is something sounds familiar to me, I got to watch the whole video. There are so much inscriptions written on the walls of the famous Angkor Wat temples in Cambodia. We called it,” the language of the Khmer during Angkor Wat era”. I don’t have a lot of knowledge in regards to the Khmer histories
Yes khmer were Hindus so they used sanskrit is thier religious prayers etc. u are from Cambodia??
Didn’t expect to see Cambodia mentioned! I get really excited when I learn more about my parent’s country
Khemer were Buddhists. Hindu is Persian word meaning Black, Dacoit, Thief, etc. Hinduism didn't exist when Buddhist monks or Buddhism arrived in Cambodia.

We're learning Sanskrit in school and I love languages. Especially I love to see people outside India discussing Sanskrit and what they have observed.
It’s a dead language. No one speaks it and no one understands it either. It’s comparable to Latin which is also dead.
@@NoName-ny1bt learning Sanskrit is super beneficial to intellect and if one can learn Sanskrit, they can easily learn most languages in South Asia.

My mum is an Indonesian, and she taught me that almost every (if not all) inscription in sanskrit that were ever found in Indonesia was written in palavan script.

What a great video ✅. I’ve really been looking for the ages of the vedas and found so much conflicting info, this is was by far the best I’ve seen, thank you 🙏
Bravo! Another, entertaining and enlightened video.
Yes... Sanskrit is the language not had a script (लिपि).. In northern regions in India we learnt Sanskrit by devnagari script in schools, some years later I got to learn that in southern, East and West regions they have their own versions of scripts on Sanskrit, even in ancient time Sanskrit written in many different scripts. Because of the technology I got to learn many valuable information, that I didn't even knew in my highschool times.
I personally prefer the Devanagari script though all Bengali Hindu religious scriptures use the Bengali script and Odiyas the Odiya script for Sanskrit. I am a Bengali.
Bullshit technology
Okay ... Please tell me then how 👉 OM 👈 👉ॐ👈 the divine sanskrit/hindu word is written in any other language other than sanskrit .. let me clear you on this 👉ॐ👈 is written like this in any other language of the world because om is not just a word but a symbol 👉ॐ👈 Until we don't write om like this it's not considered to be divine .. in india many people keep there name om but they have write their name like this 👉ओम👈 & they are not allowed to write their name like this 👉ॐ👈 because om is not just a word but a symbol & this symbol is in sanskrit ...

Sorry dear, Rig Veda is not first text, but Adharva Veda. It originated before 10000 BC . So all assumptions about the origin of languages are in different ways, and not just as said in this Video. Rig Vedic period was above 700 AD. So this is the last one. Adharva Veda's root subject was Black Magic. It originated for the safety existence in that time. So we must rethink about the origin of languages.
Also, Vedic Sanskrit (the language of Rigveda) is different from Classical Sanskrit we study today. Languages evolve over time.
Nope
Sanskrit never evolve
@@Saikalyan19 Classical Sanskrit has the subset of the same grammar rules but new vocabulary (borrowings) albeit smartly adjusted to the Vedic phonetic rules. And the vocabulary set of BHS (Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit) is one more else with grammatical rules still more reduced to the basic aspects. I can read and understand Mantras, Dharanis and short Sutras in BHS but I can't virtually understand Vedic Sanskrit.
The same with Latin - I can read and understand medieval historical chronicles, legal documents and magical incantations but from the Classical Latin I barely understand Julius Caesar. A simplified subset of the same grammar but new and smaller vocabulary similar to the modern languages.
@@Saikalyan19 It did evolve. You might have heard of a product of its evolution, it's called Hindi.
@@theodiscusgaming3909 Sanskrit never evolved . It was created to be rigid and not changed . Hindi is not evolved Sanskrit it is mix of Prakrit and Indo -Iranian languages .
@@JohnDoe19991 Vedic Sanskrit is a little different from Classical Sanskrit. The Sanskrit which we study today has many new or changed words and grammar.
The earliest form of Sanskrit is that used in the Rig Veda (called Old Indic or Rigvedic Sanskrit). Amazingly, Rigvedic Sanskrit was first recorded in inscriptions found not on the plains of India but in in what is now northern Syria.
it was not rigvedic Sanskrit instead vedic gods name in syria & some Egyptian contracts.
it means before Sanskrit we spoke something else.

Very nicely packaged heap of crap. An honest history of language is the need of the hour. When these unbathed unkempt murderous villains showed up on our shores in the 1500s they didn't know how to spell grammar studies. Now they're telling us their ancestors taught us! What a ludicrous egotistical statement. Luckily Indians are questioning the basis for their assumptions and all will be revealed in time.

Very well made and researched video!
We are actually taught in school that in Hindi and Odia, the languages that I learnt, the letters are arranged based on where we voice those sounds and I always found it pretty neat.
Bo Bo Black Sheep
You're right. Our languages aren't random (finite)collection of symbols, each witrh a sound, that might change too.
Does any other language contain the scientific structure and vibratory efficacy of Sanskrit? perhaps not?
Sanskrit is very unique and original to India just like the concept of zero!
Hindi and Odia are not much similar
But Odia pronunciations are really tough for Non odias.Odia is a Classical language, odia has such sounds that doesn't exist in hindi
We used mug up sanskrit dhatu (odia lipi) otherwise get beaten and thrashed by our sanskrit guruji in school.

Beautifully explained Sir
I'm impressed by the depth and understandability of your videos. They're so clear, and well explained, I love them. I'm definitely subscribing, maybe getting some posters in the future. I'm a bit history buff, and language / writing systems are the part that interests me the most, the un-cracked languages and systems are like the enigma codes of our day, and I love learning about them and the attempts made to decypher and understand them. The ones we have cracked, it's like if I wrote something today, and 5,000 years later they were able to find it out (poor people, getting their hopes up and it'd probably be some really awkward letter constantly apologising that I couldn't think of anything to write down and telling them I'm sorry I wasted their time).
Thank you for the knowledge, well done video !! 💖🙏
Very informative video. Well balanced and scientifically put analysis
the real problem is that these vedas mention stars and constellation at such points and degrees that it's deduced that Sanskrit was like 5000 years back. likewise river saraswati dried beds were discovered using satellites to be at least 4-4500 years and rigveda clearly shows river as fully alive and flowing.
while learning etymology from PIE the vedic sanskrit seems more closer to PIE than any other language.

Very interesting. I'm wondering if you know anything about the numbers that we use today. I don't mean their mathematical values, but rather their shapes as symbols. Who designed them and when?
The number system we use today is called Hindu-Arabic numerals originated in India at around 5th century by vedic scholars and mathematicians such as Aryabhatta and Brahmagupta, later on through trade the knowledge was shared with Middle Eastern traders, and mathematicians especially al-Khwarizmi and al-Kindi, who further introduced it to Europe at about 12th century.
Another great video! Suggestion for future video: what is the history of written numbering systems? What does it mean that modern numbers are Arabic numerals? How did those evolve and how does it relate to language?
Arabic numerals originate in India - It's interesting, many of the Indian writing systems shown in this video have their own corresponding number systems, including the old Brahma script ("Hindu-Arabic numeral system " on Wikipedia has a table of them). Eventually a set of numbers was modified for use by the Arabs, and this system was popularized in Europe in the early 1200s by Fibonacci. I would assume that the number systems evolved in a similar way with the other Indic scripts.
Originated in India translated in Arabic and reached europe
No, they’re Hindu-Arabic - a combination, not derivation
Jared Bowden Correct
@J D Dear friend, I understand your emotions, However one must be vigilant of the times he is in and hence act accordingly, not forgoing the truth but with the times.
Therefore I do not confirm with you as per.
It is true that, out of all the existing civilizations, India is the oldest and hence it's not far fetched to assume all other civilisations must have borrowed from India on the simple basis of logic and reason which is also supported with evidences, however civilizations develop in tandem and borrow from one another. In the case of India, the earlier and contemporary civilizations from which India had much give and take are extinct and there remanants have formed the newer civilizations who also have cooperatively developed with India albeit borrowing much and giving less, which would be a normal course of events for Senior-junior.
The Indian development has categorised these phenomenon of holding the truth but respecting the times, as 'Shruti' and 'Smriti', The Indian civilization of today is not outside of time or of natural course of events and hence is subject to all the natural developments that occur for a civilization. This cycle of time has all the ingredients as described through unravelling of Historical development of this world and India is a part of it.
Nonetheless I agree with you on the Spiritual level, not forgoing the truth. The Shruti are timeless and so is the Sanatan Dharma, once cycle leads to another and the repitition goes on but for one who has attained 'Moksha'.
The smritis however are bound to this timeline and true only for this 'Manvanter'. Shree Rama, Shree Krishna are the 'Avatars' within this Manvanter, that is with the times.
Really appreciate the research that goes into creating these videos. Always so much to learn and think about! Thank you for being such a thorough educator :)
Hi
The modern writing of Sanskrit like devanagari and bramhi might be younger. But linear A, b and IVC script itself was writing Sanskrit only and that makes it the oldest written language. The transformation from surviving IVC script (which are just seals with name of the person) to brahmi to other Indian written languages is quite apparent and impossible to unsee once you see it and the only reason 'experts' are not making the connection is dishonesty and agenda
@@deepika2440 but most scholars argued that the Brahmi script had originated earlier than the 3rd century BCE. This claim is based on the composition of a set of texts, the Brahmanas, which were attached to the Vedic literature during the 6th century BCE. The Brahmanas are the only section of the Vedic corpus written mostly in prose, unlike the earlier sections of the Vedas which are hymns for recitation, specially designed for oral transmission.
@@deepika2440 Sanskrit was the language spoken by the elite as early as at least 2000 BCE and Prakrit was the dialect of the masses. Both Sanskrit and Prakrit were written in the Brahmi script.
@@deepika2440 Sanskrit (or Prakrit) belongs to Tamils and has been predominantly used by Tamil kings (Chera/Chola/Pandias - Devars - Lords) to promote unity, culture, religion, economy, literature, knowledge, and science (Linguafranca). This can be gauged from the fact that these kings not only ruled the entire India but also the world. They have been the once dominant world power and are the true natives of Indus Valley Civilization. Later Sanskrit has been adopted by various other kings and dynasties of Indian sub-continent.
The earliest Tamil writing is attested in inscriptions and potsherds from the 5th century bce. Three periods have been distinguished through analyses of grammatical and lexical changes: Old Tamil (from about 450 bce to 700 ce), Middle Tamil (700-1600), and Modern Tamil (from 1600).

Excellent logical and balanced explanation.
So what about the Hanacaraka ( the Javanese script)?
Where it goes the roots of the writing system?
It comes from the pallava script witch it descendent from the brami script
Such a nice video. Very clear and concise. Love such content. It's always interesting to note similarities, patterns and such things.
Thank you. I am novice student absorbing many of your videos just recently discovering them.
From Aramaic kharoshti script was derived to write Ghandhari Prakrit. From this Kharoshti script evolved Brahmi during Maurian era
Nice explanation. Can you tell when Devanagari was adopted for writing Sanskrit?

A very interesting and nice explanation and authentic too. Sanskrit in the present form is not more than 600 years old and that is the written version. Tamil language, considered one of the oldest by many, is also laced with sanskrit but its letters differs completely from devnagri. Paper came into existence much much later as the old writings are mostly on stone slabs, papyrus and some tree barks. The oldest writings would have been on the sand or mud only and those that caked in the sun and got preserved may be available as some of the old footprints are available to the anthropologists. Also, sanskrit must have gone a seachange from the originally spoken version to the modern written version and cannot be called as the original oldest language.
Great job
I feel like it's important to mention that languages can not only be conveyed via writing and sounds, but also by signs/gestures.
Not *entirely* relevant to the topic, but I saw the definition of language at the beginning, and the sign language teacher inside me couldn't help but reminds others like always lol
女性愛理ん your point is very true.. As anthropologists we often struggle with the question when human "language"-like communication started, since our vocalchords did develope a quite late, but socialization needed a form of language and this could go back in time as far as 70k years ago or even further
There can be whistle register out of it or a finger flicking register ...
IIRC the definition i learnt uses the word "Medium". For comunication the language is a "Code" and the sounds are gestures the "Meduim" where that code is transmitted. It's a good model, is adaptable for a LOOOT of different times of communication
Mam what does this signs mean?
👉 --------- 👌
The invention of the Semitic written system is not the shape of the letters or the addition of some letters and vowels or the order of the letters. It is the abstract idea of reducing human language into primary unit sounds that can't be divided farther and assigning a written shape to that unit sound. this brilliant idea reduced the use of characters by a factor in the thousands.
Ancient Egyptian phonetics is also thought to be based on primary units of sound, without any representation of vowels
@Star Star Although, cuneiform is a mostly syllabic writing system with really abstract shapes, that would have been even more abstract by the time the Phoenician alphabet was invented
I wish u give up your religion and come back to Sanatana Dharma ...
Why is there no mention of the ancient grammarian Pāṇini? (circa 400 BCE, a philologist, grammarian, and scholar in ancient India, but who has also been variously dated between 520 BCE and 350 BCE, The dates given for Pāṇini are pure guesses by scholars)
Panini is carved in stupas built by Ashoka in Jataka stories,so yeah he must be dated before ashoka
Have you read the book Saisha Ganesh Vidya?
It was written by Mr Wakankar?
Please refer that book.
This is a good video. Although many emotional statements will fall out based on where we live and what language we love, this rational way of understanding and accepting will have to be done. Which is the oldest is good to know. Can you make something like which is the most influential? Also why was chinese, japnese etc left out. Or did I miss that video! Anyways thank you.
The Chinese and Japanese script have no relationship with the other writting systems discussed. The point of the video was to show how most writting systems descend from Egyptian Hieroglyphs thanks to the spread of the Phoenician Alphabet. The Han Characters were a Completely independent development. Just like Sumerian Cuneiform, Mesoerican Glyps and many many others
Well explained! Great video! Thanks !
Look into Dravidian scripts used in India, they must have evolved from a ancient script/ language (idk which) that existed in Southern Asia, which later evolved into Southern India as proto - Tamil and other SE Asian countries as their own scripts.
Also it's strange that a lot of Korean and Tamil worlds seem to match, despite the two countries (India and Kor) being nowhere near one another. Could be due to trade which we know the Chola empire with their massive navy would thrive on trade with ancient China/ Korea and other East Asian countries.
@@JOJO-of8vl
Another possibility...
One of the ancient Korean royal family was from Ayodhya in North India.
I got to know very recently but was surprised that some Koreans are aware of this.

@@anilvashist6758 the story of queen Heo Hwang Ok and King Kim Suro.
There are two types of brami script in india. One is called asokan brami and other one is tamil brami often called as tamili (தமிழி ).
Asokan brami goes to 2300 years back and tamil brami goes to 2600 years back. You can find asokan brami only in asokan inscription. But you can see tamil brami written in pottery, rock, and etc. Ongoing excavation in tamilnadu (state in india ) will go even before. Both are completely different
Tamil brami belongs to tamil language and many linguistics say that this writting system is from indus script because they found many similarity.
Very correct argument! It started in the Southern India and went to the world. Even DNA, migration supports this claim.
@@kuldeepgaurav1419 I hope you are all from India or Speak Tamili
Brahmi divided into two parts. One is north Indian Brahmi and the other South Indian Brahmi. Ashoka the great used North Indian Brahmi.
Think about it... Tamil Brahmi is called Tamil Brahmi because it derived from Brahmi.
What he said is fundamental analysis were correct !
It's has no origin letter continuation derived methods !
If you see in Tamil
Current letters derived from vattezhuthu
Than vattezhuthu derived from his own indus sign..
This language survived because it can drive by it own without any support from other languages ( by any means)
Archaeologist found so many
Indus description as well southern part of India, they seen the many evidence proof these people used same letter... Few years back in arcot founded stone axe dated 5000yrs same letter ..many things are there but this govt not willing to excavate to bring this knowledge to public !
Keezhadi also the best eg...
They found indus letter in that pot..
Moreover let him explain from where the Aramaic derived !!!
Korean has 1600 word similar to tamili...
Eg , In Tamil for mother and father we call as Amma , appa
Korean language also the same for sound
I've just started watching this video - I love languages - and I have to make a point about your definition of languages. Sign languages aren't spoken, and generally aren't written, though they can be notated using Stokoe notation. Your definition explicitly refers to spoken languages, but even then some don't have writing.
A very well researched informative video. And I was kind of waiting for the mention of the way the south asian writing systems are so well organised.
Firstly, the vowels and consonants are separated. The vowels are arranged in short-long pair. The first 25 consonants are arranged in 5 separate group based on their place of articulation, with each group having 5 consonants sequenced based on aspiration, voicing and nasalization.
I greatly appreciate all if your video presentations. I have learned a lot from you. The Cambodian language used a combination of Khmer, Sanskrit, and Pali. The written Khmer language was derived from the Abudiga Brahmi script that appeared in ancient Cambodia around the 6th century. Since then, the script had transformed about seven times to look like the present written form that is used in Cambodia.
Pali originates from Sanskrit btw

This video is not fully informative 😐
...and historically and linguistically ACCURATE too. Not based on personal emotions, cultural baggage, myths and legends
@@thetruthseeker5448 the speaker begins by suggesting that original Sunskrit [which he knows not how to pronounce) is "probably" from Aramaic. By the end of his presentation even he himself doubts his own original comments. there is the suggestion that Sanskrit may have been invented by someone,, May i suggest that "Like the table of the atomic elements" Some great sage received it in his consciousness and it continued on, Too many linguistic connections show that it existed long before any middle eastern languages, In the indus valley archeological discoveries of recent years the skeleton of a Yogi in Lotus posture has been dated at about 7,000 years - how many millennia prior to that was required to develop this advanced science and what language did they speak?
@@federicoparente3310 He said Brahmi could be a new invention, not Sanskrit...
@@federicoparente3310 dude, he never made those claims, he said language isn't the same as script (and it isn't, otherwise German and English would be the same thing as Latin), and that the sanskrit language is ancient and rich, there's just no evidence of it being written down before it came in contact with Greeks and Persians. He never claimed Aramaic is a linguistic ancestor of sanskrit, he never said anything you claim he did.
The thumbnail of this video has an image which is written the Brahmi Script
That was interesting. I didn't see any mention of the script found on ancient clay tablets!
It may be that one culture finally reached prominence and began trading with another culture and the languages mixed by accepting new products and definitions from another culture. This alleviates the burden of deciding which came first.
Well the whole theory that Brahmi came from Aramaic is no longer valid, because more pre-Ashokan inscriptions have been found recently of earlier time than 250BCE. Examples include Brahmi script of Anuradhapura, Srilanka of 5th-6th century BCE, Tamil Brahmi script from Kaladi, Tamilnadu from 4th century BCE. Please include them.
Yeah, it is strange that he only did partial research on this topic... Why would anyone talk about something so complicated like sanskrit and risk making mistakes - like the one you mention.
There are many other mistakes in this video, so it is clear that youtubers just dnt have the respect for foreign history, systems or culture.
@@summergram Plus they read more from colonized British fake history of Aryan-Invasion Theory, so anything Indian has to be imported from middle-east and Central Asia. :-) The Indus valley civilization and following Vedic civilization are a nightmare to them. Because other older civilizations like Babylon, Egyptians, Roman, Mayan are destroyed easily by the European, but only Indian and Chinese civilization stood tall to those invaders and still thriving.
There are Jewish burial tombs around 300bc in South India. So contact with middleast and india is very old. They might have introduced early version of ibrahim script.
Writing systems are adopted based of ease of writing. Just like we use english alphabets while texting in our mother tongue using phones. Becoz it is easier to type.
It is very possible Indians might have dropped native scripts for foreign ones.
We still haven't deciphered Indus script. Until then we can only make conclusions based on evidence we have. i.e. brahmi might have roots in Phoenician
