Vedic Sanskrit-Like Langauage is the mother of all European languages

London School Using Sanskrit To Help Kids Learn Math, Science and Other Languages 

For 4 years, we had Sanskrit in our school but was the most boring class because the way they taught the class.  So I did not learn much but was creative enough to device my own rules to pass the suject with barely 33 percent marks.

Somehow to heal my son, I turned east and west to look for knowledge. And for learning the ancient knowledge, the knowledge of Sanskrit was very important. And then I realized, if I teach my son Sanskrit Grammar (and tagged along daughter in our joint endeavors whose contributions I can not repay), it would be a good exercise for building Memory and Logic.

In the process I discovered, Sanskrit had many words which are there in English - besides having a few grammar rules itself!

One pattern emerged, that the English speaking people emerged from group of people who picked up these words without the grounding of a proper Sanskrit Grammer Training - or being used to the subtle sounds of vowel gradations, and aspirated and aspirated sounds. 

In summary, Sanskrit offers infinite variations of consonants and vowels, besides having roughly 52 letters and English has 26 letters.
