Elementary Grammar of the Sanskrit Language: Partly in the Roman Character, Arranged According to a New Theory, In Reference Especially to the Classical Languages

Elementary Grammar of the Sanskrit Language by Monier Williams is a foundational text designed to introduce students to Sanskrit using a practical and accessible approach. Partly written in Roman script, it presents Sanskrit grammar in a systematic format aligned with the structures of classical languages like Latin and Greek. Williams’s innovative arrangement emphasizes comparative linguistics, making it especially useful for Western learners. The book covers phonology, morphology, syntax, and includes clear examples to aid comprehension. Its pedagogical clarity and cross-linguistic insights have made it a lasting resource in Sanskrit studies and Indo-European philology since its publication in the 19th century
