Learn to read, write, and speak Sanskrit every Ravivaar

Every Sunday I will try to tweet basic Sanskrit words and sentences so that we can all learn or revise Sanskrit together. Idea is to use Sanskrit in Day to Day conversation. Will try to do it during legendary and famous time slot (११ पूर्वाह्न / 11 AM) when Ramayan and Mahabharat used to be telecasted on Doordarshan (DD National). Embedded below are those tweets in weekly order. Feedback, Correction, or Criticism is welcome.

सप्ताह १ / Week 1
सप्ताह २ / Week 2
सप्ताह ३ / Week 3

Inspiration to do this purusharth is drawn from the following speech of Shri Narendra Modi:
