What methodology do you plan on using for starting learning Sanskrit ?
>>
>>7501197
i have a system. i just find a hopefully interesting professor willing to teach 1 on 1, then I relocate to where they live and study or work nearby for a couple years.

Do you really want to be "that white guy who's really into hindu everything (but not really)"?

>>7501310
im not white, and i don't particularly like hindu culture, i just like learning languages

I hope you already know English, Classical Greek, Latin, Hebrew, German, Japanese, Spanish, Italian, French, Dutch, Danish, Mandarin, Cantonese, and Arabic - if not, your priorities are seriously fucked up.

I'd prefer to learn Pali first so I can read the Tathagata's words in something close to the original, after that maybe Sanskrit
>>
