Hi All,
I am Deepali staying in Mumbai city of India. My mother-tongue is Marathi (one of the many languages that is speak in India). Our National Language is Hindi and the Standard Communication language is English. English is widely used in all the offices, schools. So most of the people in Mumbai know all the three languages (Marathi, Hindi and English). So we (me, my husband and my other relatives) most of the time talk with my baby either in Marathi or in English. My baby is currently 1 year and 3 months old. She understands now few words of Marathi and few words of English.
I have read somewhere that baby’s grasping power of learning different language is very good in this age. I was just wondering that shall I speak to her in one more language say “Sanskrit” which is India’s ancient Language? (I have also studies that language). Will that be a burden and/or confusion for her? Please help me in knowing this answer.
Speaking Sanskrit will be an added advantage as it mak
