Phonetics/pronunciation and etymology are two of the other Vedangas, and they fall under linguistics in the Western conception too. So really 3 of the 6 Vedangas concern linguistics (as we modern Westerners understand the term) in some way.
@@Deepak_Dhakad are you Indian? I'm a white dude from Australia but I find Sanskrit and Devanagari fascinating. I've been learning about Kashmiri tantrism lately.
@@Deepak_Dhakad yeh i was learning a bit of siddham and sharda too. I'm interested in the philosophy behind the inherent meaning of each sound of the varnamala and the root dhatu meanings as well as the philosophy that went into the design choices of the symbols used in each script such as the 5 divisions of the circle that were used for devanagari. Can you share what you know about that?
I actually didn't know this, thanks! I'm a philosophy major so I always thought Linguistics formed as an academic subject after the work of Wittgenstein, Ayer, Russell.
Fascinating presentation from a non-linguist perspective. Well presented (on the interwebs) as well, and easy to follow. I think the concept works very well: there is nothing worse than finding themed PP presentations without any annotation littered about when you’re looking for info on any subject.
Click on a video from Cypher from the Dark City reboot, Somehow find an informative video on how indo-europeans also had to learn shitposting properly. Neat.

Latin was an international language in the European, middle east and Asia area, and it was transmitted orally and in writing by tens of thousands of people (monks, businessmen, students, workers etc.), also monks and kings sciencemen servants were writing translation books with words and letter sounds from all the countries the king had affairs with. All the books are kept in monasteries, museums and personal collections.
Latin was more West and North Europe. Latin usage in East Europe is not so much as Greek remained the liturgical even to this day. Middle east, Asia? That's pushing it too much.
Not only it's obviously false as an idea but it's ridiculously false as well. In Europe, a lot of linguists consider de Saussure to be the modern starting point of linguistics.
Ferdinand de Saussure was influenced a lot by Panini. Panini has often been acknowledged as the Father of Linguistics. Modern Linguistics exists only because Europeans discovered Sanskrit in India a few centuries back. Actually, it's not just the History of Linguistics, but the History of Ideas, in general, that has been distorted for too long. Long story ...
@@maya-cc2sx Many of my views have changed ever since my last comment. While there certainly has been distortion, it has not been as bad as I used to think. It's Right for the Historians of Ideas to have given more credit to the Ancient Greeks than anybody else ...
@@DipayanPyne94 ah alright, your comment prompted me to ask cause I always thought all ancient civilizations had more or less 'equal' contributions (exceptions being geography sometimes helping innovation I guess, like in the silk road), I'd never thought a task as big as objectively comparing them would be possible but I'll look into this myself ig
@@maya-cc2sx The BEST Ancient Civilization was Ancient Greece. There were other Great Civilizations as well, such as Ancient India, Ancient China, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Mesopotamia etc etc, but NONE of them were anywhere as good as Ancient Greece.

I'm into this. A channel about technology, philosophy and linguistics? Luke, this channel is a dream come true.
I often wonder if you're the only person in the conference who uses a terminal for presentations.

Grammar is just one of the 6 vedangas- a must for understanding the Vedas apart from bonafide Guru-Shisya parampara

Why do you need those things?

more linguistics, please.
Came here for the Linux/computery stuff and ended up finding linguistics, couldn't be happier !

Luke confirmed for colourblind.
Can you give a presentation on Part 2, or perhaps do another version of the presentation for us?
Your linguistics videos are the best.
Didn't knew my favourite Linux RUclipsr have knowledge about Sanskrit!
Click on a video from Cypher from the Dark City reboot,
Somehow find an informative video on how indo-europeans also had to learn shitposting properly. Neat.
I'd love to see a similar video on nirukta by yaska! Philology is really interesting to me personally
Very good presentation man. You are a natural. Also is this a pandoc slideshow thinger?
Yup. I wrote it in R Markdown and coverted it with pandoc et al.

My fucking eyes when you inverted the colors.
Proud of Rishi Panini, our illustrious Hindu sage.
Proud of being Hindu 🕉.
Hey, you could make Part 2 a RUclips exclusive!

which language do you think can become a global one in the next 50 years? Can it be some mix of Chinese and English?
English already is.

Thank you Drake for that hilarious fortnite gameplay
This woman constantly interjecting is quite annoying. Good talk, regardless.
she is supposedly an "expert" in her field, and the interjections are not that bad
