How to ask “How are you” in Sanskrit (Let’s learn & teach Sanskrit) – Part 2 (English, Hindi, Kannada to Sanskrit)
Namaste friends, how are you doing today? Bhagavan Sri Vishnu blessings to you and your family!
Sanskrit is the most ancient and most perfect language on this earth since the “aadi kalam” (unknown time frame).
Sanskrit is called as “गुह्य भाषा“, that is, Sanskrit is called as a “secret language” which only few people can learn and you are one among them. Congratulations for this.
No one is aware of the starting time frame of this great and divine Sanskrit language, except Lord Vishnu himself. Sanskrit is as old as Lord Vishnu himself.
Even today, the higher and lower planets use this Great language Sanskrit for their communication.
The higher planets include Vaikuntha, Satya Loka (Brahma Loka), Swarga Loka etc. and lower planets include all the Patalas.
With the blessings and as per the wishes of Lord Vishnu, I have started this divine path called as “Let’s learn & teach Sanskrit” few days ago.
This is my second post on “Let’s learn & teach Sanskrit”. Without wasting any more time, “Let’s learn & teach Sanskrit”.
Now, let us know a list of sentences in English, Hindi and Kannada which can be translated in to Sanskrit language:

For example : For masculine gender it is asked like this : भवान् त्वम् कथम् अस्ति ? | ಭವಾನ್ ತ್ವಮ್ ಕಥಮ್ ಅಸ್ತಿ ? | bhavān tvam katham asti ?
