Have you ever met someone who could speak, read and write in Sanskrit?

Asked by garydale (216points) January 8th, 2011

I recently read about a young Brit named Michael Williams who is studying for a Ph.D. in Sanskrit in the United Kingdom as well as having heard of the villages of Mattur and Hosahalli in India where the residents speak Sanskrit to keep it alive. Since I study Hindi I found this interesting. I have met Catholic priests who speak near perfect Latin, but this is a bit different. I am wondering how prevalent this might be?
