They throw light on Sanskrit grammar as recorded in Chinese works and contributions of Sanskrit to Chinese linguistics on the many Sanskrit manuscripts available in Japan and similarities and regularities in the phonetic system grammar and vocabulary of Sanskrit and Russian. They view links between Sanskrit and the Slavonic languages German English Persian and the Indonesian languages examining mutual borrowings. They explain the way translations from one language to another have affected preservation and dissemination of knowledge.
