Part Two of third course in learning Sanskrit at junior level.

The Story of Rama is aimed at children between eight and ten years of age. It begins with a revision of the grammar learned in The Stories of Krishna and then goes on to introduce the standard method of transliteration of the Sanskrit script; the gerund (‘having done something’); various Sanskrit idioms; and the declension of the Sanskrit word ‘that’ in all three genders.

The second volume contains the final eight stories, beginning with a revision of the grammar learned so far, and then going on to cover an introduction to the imperative mood; other important noun and pronoun declensions; gerund with prefixes; the past passive participle; the conjugation of the middle voice and the verb ‘to be’ in present, future and past; the completion of the standard method of transliterating Sanskrit script.

The two parts together should take about four or five terms to complete.

The course is preceded by Sanskrit Is Fun and Stories of Krishna.
