When we were learning English as a new language in kindergarten, we often were given real life sentences to understand the language and its usage better i.e we learn Self Introduction.

For any new language we learn, we get a better hold of it when we use it in our daily lives.

Thus, in this lesson you will learn to introduce yourself in Sanskrit language.

Below are given sentences and their translation along with the transliteration. Try to understand the meaning of the sentences word by word keeping in mind the grammar that has been used.
