Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The most ancient layer of Sanskrit is one of the most important sources for the reconstruction of PIE. The main focus of the presentation lies with those verbal classes that have an important impact on both traditional and recent questions of PIE verbal morphology. On the other hand, irregularities still found in the nominal inflection of Classical Sanskrit find an explanation.
