Hello,

Currently all Dravidian communities mostly use a version of the Hindu calendar as their traditional calendar except Brahuis who probably use the Islamic calendar. However Brahuis do have a traditional calendar which has months of 40 days. Interestingly the month names are a bit similar to Hindu calendar months. However was there any ancient seperate Dravidian Calendar? Specifically something related to 40 days months? As 40 days is a significant period in many festivals and events across all Indian communities

Hello,

I wanted to know what is the correct way to treat foreign proper nouns in Sanskrit (by foreign I mean anything not found in ancient Sanskrit literature) like John, Sam, Mumbai, London, Abdul, Qatar, etc. Do we keep them as it is, give some vibhakti or something else?

I want to ask the reason for ङ and झ being missing in Kharoshthi and how could Sanskrit have been written if these were missing as both are an important part of Sanskrit specially ङ.

I have seen some studies claiming that brahmi originated in South India and it may even seem correct of we get brahmi script specimens in South India way older than Ashokan ones. However even we see the tamil brahmi script, many of the uniquely Dravidian sounds' letters are derived from the closest indo Aryan sound. This indicates that the script was not originally made for any Dravidian language. For eg the short e letter in Tamil brahmi is just a dot inside the long e letter. Had the script been a native Dravidian one, we would have proper seperate letters and not diacritics based extension.

So how can brahmi be from South India?

And if it's from North India, how do we explain earlier specimens in South India?

Either theory like contradicting to itself.

Hello, I do not know brahmi or Dravidian but I do have an interest in history in general. I have seen this sub using brahmi script on flairs. But I am not yet able to read that fully. Can someone tell what is it written and in which language?

I wanted to ask , what is the current consensus on origin of Brahmi? Which theory is the most correct and possible to be true?

Also is kharoshthi a sister script of Brahmi?
