This is excellent! Thank you! This is exactly what a serious English-speaking beginner like me needs! :-) Wonderful teacher! Namoh namaha from the Colorado Rocky Mountains, USA 🙂
Thank you so much for the video! It helps me tremendously in understanding the pronunciations of the consonants, which I have been struggling with for a while. If it is possible, I would love to watch more videos of Sanskrit learning from you!
Yes, I do. My classes are free. However I am not starting a new class till sometime next year (hopefully) - unless of course, I get a number of interested people 😀 You can watch my class videos on UA-cam and if you're interested I can send you the associated resources.
I came here trying to understand how to pronounce "rṛ" [रृ] as in "nirṛti" [निरृति]. Firstly, my understanding is that the first r should be a alveolar tap, but when I hear desis speak, it usually sounds like a retroflex tap. Then, the second r has the dot. So, I assume it's meant to be a retroflex approximate. But, I can't figure out how it's possible to do a flap (which involves moving the tongue *down* from the alveolar ridge) and then immediately retroflex (which involves pulling the tongue *up* toward the hard palate). So, I "tap" backward into the retroflex. But I'm not convinced it sounds right. It kind of ends up sounding more like "dṛ." But, I can't find samples of रृ to listen to to make sure. Can anyone help?
@@ramananv1112 Namaste! Words in Sanskrit are pronounced exactly as they are written. So brahma is pronounced bra h ma. I know there are some scholars who insist that it's pronounced bra-m-ha but I have not come across any rule for that. If anyone knows the sutra that says it should be pronounced differently please let me know 🙏

Great video! I just wish there was IAST translation also. I'm trying to figure out the difference between ṛ and ṝ. Thank you! 🙏❤️🙇

@@rram421 Thanks, but it doesn't help. I'm trying to understand the phoneme, not how it looks when written. Know what I mean?
How to pronounce Brahma in Sanskrit.

honestly this is not horribly hard. even though I can't hear the difference in some cases, at least I can say them and not feel like a complete idiot.
The running subtitles in Roman script are horribly misleading. ट वर्ग (ta varga) became Toe worker!
Thank you so much 😊
