And now modern-day philologists believe this very strongly the more that they have studied it. They, based on the connections and the grammar and even the vocabulary and the word structure themselves, they now theorize that a parent language of Sanskrit, Latin, and the Germanic languages and the Celtic languages, we call a language today called Proto-Indo-European, which is a lost language. But we think that Sanskrit is one of the oldest, is one of the oldest evidences that we have of that Proto-Indo-European language. Sanskrit is, of course, the parent language, has evolved in different parts of India into languages like Hindi, Bengali, and Punjabi. Latin, which is also a dead language now, has evolved into languages like Spanish, Italian, and French. And English, which is considered a Germanic language, structurally, but has significant influence from Latin and French, they all come from that same Proto-Indo-European root. And just to get an appreciation for why these philologists believe this, and this is something when I first saw it really blew my mind a little bit, I'll show you some connections between Sanskrit words, and those of you who might be Hindi, Bengali, or Punjabi speakers, or any of these North Indian languages in India will see the connection to Sanskrit.
