Many thanks, Eddie. This looks good.Kind regards,Irene
Irene,--==> Or perhaps there is somewhere an extensive exposition of Sanskrit syntax that I ought to read? <==There certainly is. Read the introduction to get the full picture.Here's the pdf of a book that should help in understanding those commentators of old,and especially why they wrote the way they did which was according to a prescribed formula.There's much more to it than syntax and terse rules of grammar:Scholastic Sanskrit. A Manual for Students.The PDFshould inspire you to buy the hardback versionTaff Rivers,

I do see your point, even though Duolingo's approach seems overly dumbed down, in my opinion.Have you seenDr. Narasing Rao's lessons on Youtube? Dr Rao uses Kutumbasastri's Teach Yourself Sanskrit textbook, published by Rashtriya Sanskrit Sansthan. The book consists of 5 levels. Dr Rao has recently uploaded lesson number 504, from Level 3. Levels 1 and 2 are already complete.
PS If you know of a good video/audio course that teaches Sanskrit via Sanskrit (ie the teacher speaks only in Sanskrit from the very beginning), please mention the details here.
I'd love to buy this course, especially its intermediate/advanced levels. It would also be lovely to have more things to listen to/watch in Sanskrit, other than DD News and Iyers' films.

Levels 1 and 2 are already complete.I have glanced at Dr. Narasing Rao's lessons on Youtube, but I can hardly bear to watch them at any length since I am already very familiar with the material (sanskrit) and since I prefer instruction in Sanskrit (or atleast an Indian language) by a large margin.But, good to know that it benefits anglophones! Are you able to use (speak, write, read) the language as a result of following those videos?
