Sri Aurobindo
Letters of Sri Aurobindo
SABCL 26
Fragment ID: 7555
He studied Hindi also at Baroda.
Sri Aurobindo never studied Hindi; but his acquaintance with Sanskrit and other Indian languages made it easy for him to pick up Hindi without any regular study and to understand it when he read Hindi books or newspapers. He did not learn Sanskrit through Bengali, but direct in Sanskrit itself or through English.
