Teaching Sanskrit through computational tools is an effective way due to which a language as difficult as Sanskrit would become relatively easy and more students would be able to learn it. Computational linguistics is defined as a combination of Computer Science and any language.

Speaking to Education Times, Amba Kulkarni, Professor, Department of Sanskrit Studies, University of Hyderabad, says, In order to read any Sanskrit text one needs to know the suffix attached to the Sanskrit word which is not seen separately. This suffix is integrated with the Sanskrit word. Learning Sanskrit is a difficult task as the learners would have to memorise all the forms of Kriya (verb). In the Sanskrit language, there are, in addition to singular and plural, dual forms of the words. In order to help users, we have designed a computational tool where we just give a word and the machine shows all the forms of that Sanskrit word. For instance, if we enter the word Rama, the computer will provide us with all its forms in the Sanskrit language."
