Urge Duolingo to Include Sanskrit in Its Language Learning App


Urge Duolingo to Include Sanskrit in Its Language Learning App
The Issue
Sanskrit, often referred to as the mother of all languages, is a classical language that dates back over 3,500 years. Despite its historical significance and cultural richness, it is currently not offered as a learning option on Duolingo. This petition seeks to change that. By including Sanskrit in its offerings, Duolingo can help preserve this ancient language and make it accessible to learners worldwide. It's worth noting that UNESCO has classified Sanskrit as an endangered language (UNESCO Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger). Therefore, including it on popular platforms like Duolingo can play a significant role in its preservation and revival. Let's urge Duolingo to expand their linguistic horizons by adding Sanskrit into their list of languages offered for learning. Sign this petition today and support the inclusion of Sanskrit on Duolingo!
