i want to say indian did not invent zero. it was there since prophet time. egyptian civilization was famous for mathematics and science. arabs brought science to world those days. zero came from the prophet time . arabs were more intelligent than indian during those days. prophet used to heel people and cure them.indians did not know how to do it. medicine came from the arab world and was used by indians

""Here are some sanskrit and english words. SANSKRIT ENGLISH matar mother pitar papa/father bhratar brother svasar sister gyaamti geometry trikonamiti trigonometry dvaar door ma me naman name smi smile eka equal etc."" How can you say english words belong to sanskrit? Muslim civilization came before even sanskrit was found.i say that muslims are responsible for most of invention in the world.look at pakistan and saudi arabia.they have missiles and oil.prophet was responsible for islam revival and islam has contributed science and technology from those days.sanskrit is not as old as islam.i feel indians copied zero from holy books.

Fool Sanskrit and Hinduism have been around for 5 millenia now. Islam hasn't even been around for 2. Who cares if Pakis and Saudis have oil and missiles. Muslims and the prophet didnt invent oil. Neither did they invent missiles. The first true missile (at least in my opinion) was invented by the "infidel" germans. And some english words are derived from Indian languages. -MT

Everybody accepts that important advances in trigonometry were made in India. However, this was mostly in the 3,4,5,6 centuries. For Example, the Sine and Cosine are said to be invented in India. Value of Pi is another example. But to attribute the whole of trigonometry, Nah!! We should not overdo it. Now about Sanskrit: It is a language which was brought to India around 1500 BC by the invading Aryans from Central Asia. So, these guys could have spread the same language to Europe too.. and hence the similarity.

{But to attribute the whole of trigonometry, Nah!! We should not overdo it.}Jay But I never said the whole of trigonometry came from India.I just said it 'might' have originated in India.But then also I accepted that it's just but a possibilty. {the Sine and Cosine are said to be invented in India.}jay The sine and cosine are the basics of trigonometry.The other parameters tan,sec,cosec and cot are derived from these two.If the sine and cosine are indeed Indian made,then we can definitely say that trigonometry orginated in India. {Now about Sanskrit: It is a language which was brought to India around 1500 BC by the invading Aryans from Central Asia. So, these guys could have spread the same language to Europe too.. and hence the similarity. }jay are u sure it's 1500bc?........I thought it was much older........and some even say that these aryans borrowed the sanskrit language which already existed in India.......but some prominient historians do say that sanskrit is the mother of all european languages including latin............ HA!this will go on....these ifs and buts........the main point is we lost whatever little evidence we had when the muslim invaders came to India and destroyed whatever was 'un-muslim'.Alas!we will never know the true story if indeed the present accepted 'truth' is incorrect!

I dont know much about sanskrit...some say it is 5000 years old..if that is true i wont be surprised if most of the languages originated from sanskrit...it is just that india went through many many invasions that most of the evidence is destroyed...

The language in the indus valley civilization was a different language. It is much closer to tamil than to sanskrit. I am not trying to asses the age of sanskrit however, I am sure it came along with the aryan invasion. ie: 1500 BC. Now I am seeing that most of us guys here are complaining that the muslims destroyed a lot of monuments and stuff like that. I would like to assure you, that india is india because of that. People blend in. The beauty of india lies in the fact that it embraces with twice as much love as u embrace it. Lets look at the US, even now, we don't have afro american as a presidential candidate, leave alone a president. Look at india, A roman catholic, nearly became the Prime minister of India. It is not our weakness, but our strength. So all the muslims in India are Indians first and muslims second.

{The beauty of india lies in the fact that it embraces with twice as much love as u embrace it}jay INDEED!very true!And I'm not actually blaming the muslims.Infact I'm very proud of muslims of our country.Inspite of so many terrorists arrested after the London blasts,none of them were Indian muslims. But I was pointing the finger at those cruel muslim kings.It is a fact that these fellas did inflict some damage to our 'stuffs'.Ofcourse the whole muslim population cannot be blamed for the action of one or two.I did not mean to hurt any INDIAN muslims.

At least 3,500 years old, Sanskrit is to India roughly what Latin and ancient Greek are to Europe -- the ancestor of many modern tongues and the original form of many religious, literary and scientific works. In fact, linguists surmise that Sanskrit, Latin and Greek shared a common root language. -- this is what i found when i searched for sanskrit...i guess we should be proud of bein part of such a rich culture...India is great
