> Tamil derived from Sanskrit as is Malayalam & Kannadiga and countless other Indian languages.
False. Dravidian languages were likely part of Indus Valley civilization. They were the original Indian languages. In fact Tamil doesn’t even have many borrowed words from Sanskrit
Sanskrit was never commonly spoken. Panini himself understands this and created Sanskrit grammar for fast transmission and not easy conversation. It’s not clear if Sanskrit was ever used conversationally. Even today, in Mattur, where everyone uses Sanskrit, it’s not the conversational language. It’s reserved for special occasions and teaching. Decline of Sanskrit has nothing to do with foreign invasions. They never invaded or ruled over south India for long. Hinduism thrived with Shankaracharya, Ramanuja, Bhakthi movement etc in the South. North Indians have no one else but themselves to blame for the loss of their culture.
Have you read Ashtadyayi? It’s a genius piece of work but won’t help you zilch in practice. Also learn the name of the scripture properly before you falsely profess random crap to stroke your ego.
