GeneralEven Avestan and Latin are taught.It is a relevant language, only compartmentalized into very specific roles such as weddings etc that I mentioned.
Baaki, researchers etc mostly karte hain iski study..
also read something about gurukul type schools where they do teach the kids.
waay more relevant and prevalent than Latin or Avestan or any other.



its great brain exercise.Even Avestan and Latin are taught.
And researched.
A huge amount of work is done by Germans.
So?
Its a dead language.
And we waste 5th to 8th std in ICSE mugging up a dead tongue no one understands or uses.
Instead of allowing kids to take their mother tongue or state tongue in formal training of reading and writing instead.
Chtyap.
WoW!its great brain exercise.
a gooble gooble yielded these:
I asked 'how many speakers'
Avestan has no native or primary speakers and is considered an extinct language, used only as the sacred ritual language of the Zoroastrian faith. While no one speaks Avestan as an everyday tongue, Zoroastrian priests and others who learn the language to read the Avesta can understand it, though it was largely forgotten even by the time of the Sasanian Empire.
..
According to the 2011 Indian Census, 24,821 people in India have Sanskrit as their mother tongue, a figure that has been on the rise in recent decades. While the number of native speakers is very small, with fewer than 1% of Indians speaking it as a first language, a larger, but less defined, number of people can understand or speak Sanskrit to some degree, with some estimates suggesting up to a million or more people study the language.
