When I first learned that the proofreading symbol commonly known as carat, an inverted V that we use for adding words in sentences actually came from Sanskrit, I was astounded! In Mrichhakatikam, a Sanskrit play written over 2000 years ago, the villain Shakaara rudely uses the word Kakapada to... show more

![What happens when Sanskrit students take the language beyond the classroom? A group of international Sanskrit learners went on an informal hike through the Elbsandsteingebirge in Germany. What began as a simple day outdoors soon turned into something unexpected: they started speaking Sanskrit. As they walked, they described what they saw, asked questions, joked, searched for words and helped each other along the way. There were mistakes too—and plenty of laughter. It wasn’t a lesson. It wasn’t an official Summer School activity. It was simply people trying to make a language part of everyday life. And perhaps that is what keeps a language alive—not just preserving its words, but continuing to speak them, share them and find new ways to use them. This Sanskrit Day, here’s to a language that has travelled across centuries and continues to bring people from different places together, one conversation at a time. ❤️ Credits : flowtingfairy on IG #Sanskrit #SpokenSanskrit #IndianLanguages #LanguageLearning #SanskritStudents [Sanskrit, Spoken Sanskrit, Sanskrit Summer School, Elbsandsteingebirge, language learning]](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2093209462026703251/amplify_video_thumb/2092926755556425728/img/DsoZdZWFYCi0UuFh.jpg)
![Somewhere on Bengaluru’s roads, Sanskrit is getting a very unexpected second life — on motorcycles. Started by Sanskrit enthusiast Samashti Gubbi, the Kimbho Sanskrit Riders’ Club brings together bikers who ride, chat, play games, eat and explore — largely in Sanskrit. And you don’t need to know the language to join. You just need the curiosity to learn. The idea is refreshingly simple: don’t just preserve a language. Use it. From Bengaluru to Nandi Hills, Skandagiri, Lepakshi and beyond, their rides turn every pit stop into a chance to speak Sanskrit. Even modern expressions are finding their way into the language — with “Kimbho?” being their version of “What’s up?” This World Sanskrit Day, here’s to the bikers putting an ancient language back on the road.❤️ Kimbho?

![“Gay friends of mine say [the word “fag”] is offensive to them—even though many of them use it. It’s the same argument as ‘the n word’ for black people. They use it amongst themselves to reclaim that word…but if a white person uses it at then, it’s obviously a disgusting, racist slur. I think we all know that.” I reject this so much. There aren’t words that are off-limits to certain people because of their skin color, sex, or sexual orientation. It’s absurd for gays to use the word “fag” and then be mad when straights use it—just like it’s absurd for blacks to use the word “nigger” and then be mad when whites use it.

![[Part 2] How I met BTS V hyungnim at the training camp: Turns out we were in the same platoon. 👤I enlisted on December 11th, and at that time, news spread that two BTS members were enlisting. It was all over the news, and there were tons of people. I went in thinking, “How would we even meet among so many people?” After saying goodbye to my parents, everyone moved out to the field, and it was time to sit on the allocated seats. I sat down, and there was one empty seat in front of me. I wondered why it was empty, and then two people walked in, almost like under a spotlight. I thought, “Ah, That must be BTS V hyungnim.” Then, they were dividing us into squads. I thought, “Could we end up in the same platoon?” And we actually did. We ended up in the same first platoon. V hyungnim was in the first platoon, first unit, and I was in the first platoon, third unit. And so that is how my training camp life with V hyung started. - continued in part 3 (](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2058740125048394231/amplify_video_thumb/2058736420970512384/img/j_vu4Hhx_CwzWA8M.jpg)
