Similar and common words in French and Sanskrit
I have been working on finding similar sounding words in different languages with Sanskrit. In the past I provided some lists of similar words in Sanskrit and English, and also in Sanskrit and German (Deutsch). This time, I am ready with around 10 similar words in French and Sanskrit.
My sole aim in providing these list is fun and not imposing on some results. I would be glad if you would like to share some thoughts on it or want to make some contribution by suggesting some words so that we could create more similar lists of words in different languages.
Like always, I am providing English meanings of the French words that I am taking so as to make clear what meaning I am taking while finding the similar words in Sanskrit:
| Pied | Foot | पदं |
| Ananas | Pineapple | अननसः |
| Genou | Knee | जानु |
| Navire | Boat | नाव |
| Laque | Lacquer | लाक्ष |
| Soi | Self | स्वयम् |
| Dent | Tooth | दन्तं |
