💨 Abstract

Linguist Peggy Mohan challenges the common view that Prakrit was the language of the common people in ancient India, claiming it was more of an official language from the 6th century BC to the 12th century CE. Prakrit was similar to Sanskrit but had a slight difference in pronunciation and a local feel.
