السنسكريتية (संस्कृतम् saṃskṛtam [sə̃skɹ̩t̪əm], originally संस्कृता वाक् saṃskṛtā vāk, "refined speech") هي لغة قديمة في الهند وهي لغة طقوسية للهندوسية، والبوذية، واليانية. لها مسقط في الهند وجنوب شرق آسيا مشابه للغة اللاتينية واليونانية في أوروبا في القرون الوسطى، ولها جزء مركزي في التقليد الهندوسي. السنسكريتية هي إحدى الاثنتين وعشرين لغة رسمية للهند. تدرس في الهند كلغة ثانية. كما ان بعض البراهمنيين -وهم الوعاظ من الطبقة العالية- يعتبرونها لغتهم الأم.
اللغة السنسكريتية Sanskrit هي إحدى أقدم اللغات التي أنتجت تراثاً دينياً وأدبياً وفهمياً مدوناً، وحدثة سنسكريت المشتقة من Samskrta تعني ما قُعِّد وصُقِل. تنتمي السنسكريتية إلى المجموعة الهندية ـ الآرية Indo-Aryan المتفرعة عن المجموعة الهندية ـ الإيرانية Indo-Iranian المنتمية إلى الأسرة اللغوية الهندية ـ الأوربية Indo-European، وقد ظهرت أصلاً في المنطقة الشمالية الغربية من شبه القارة الهندية ثم انتشرت جنوباً وشرقاً، ووصلت إلى ذروتها في الألف الأولى بعد الميلاد، إذ صارت لغة الثقافة والشعائر الدينية في معظم جنوبي وجنوب شرقي القارة الآسيوية، كونها لغة الديانة الهندوسية [ر].
تمتلك اللغة السنسكريتية، كسائر اللغات الهندية الأوربية القديمة، صيغة المثنى إلى جانب المفرد والجمع، وكذلك صيغة المحايد إلى جانب المذكر والمؤنث. كما تمتلك ثماني حالات إعرابية هي: الحمل، النصب، المفعول به الثاني، المفعول فيه، المضاف إليه، الظرفية، المنادى، الأدوات المساعدة. أما حروف الكتابة فيفوق عددها المئة، وهي بالغة التعقيد بحيث تصعب ترجمتها نطقاً بحروف لغات أخرى، بسبب تعدد أشكال لفظ الصوامت والصوائت والإدغام بين قصير ومتوسط وطويل. وتسمى هذه الأبجدية «ديفاناغاري» Devanagari، أي كتابة مدينة الآلهة.

Computational linguistics
There have been suggestions to use Sanskrit as a metalanguage for knowledge representation in e.g. machine translation, and other areas of natural language processing because of its relatively high regular structure. This is due to Classical Sanskrit being a regularized, prescriptivist form abstracted from the much more complex and richer Vedic Sanskrit. This leveling of the grammar of Classical Sanskrit began during the Brahmana phase, and had not yet completed by the time of Pāṇini, when the language had fallen out of popular use.[]
