I am providing the world Langauge Tree below.
Note that Sanskrit heads the list on the Right.
It may be noted that the other language groups headed by Anatolian ,followed by Hitti and others do have Tamil and Sanskrit Roots.
I shall be posting on this in detail.
My researches show that Tamil and Sanskrit head the world language groups at the top.
In other words world languages have their origins in Tamil, Sanskrit and a combination of both.
I have posted that Tamil influenced Hitti language.
‘The Sanskrit language, whatever be its antiquity, is of a wonderful structure; more perfect than the Greek, more copious than the Latin, and more exquisitely refined than either, yet bearing to both of them a stronger affinity, both in the roots of verbs and the forms of grammar, than could possibly have been produced by accident; so strong indeed, that no philologer could examine them all three, without believing them to have sprung from some common source, which, perhaps, no longer exists; there is a similar reason, though not quite so forcible, for supposing that both the Gothic and the Celtic, though blended with a very different idiom, had the same origin with the Sanskrit; and the old Persian might be added to the same family, if this were the place for discussing any question concerning the antiquity of Persia. (Fortson, p. 9)
Sanskrit (/ˈsænskrɪt/; संस्कृतम् saṃskṛtam [səmskr̩t̪əm], originally संस्कृता वाक् saṃskṛtā vāk, “refined speech”) is the primary liturgical language of Hinduism, a philosophical language in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism, and a literary language that was in use as alingua franca in the Indian cultural zone. It is a standardised dialect of Old Indo-Aryan language, originating as Vedic Sanskrit and tracing its linguistic ancestry back to Proto-Indo-Iranian and Proto-Indo-European.

* I have deliberately left informing that Tamil ahs not been mentioned in this tree, hoping that some one will point it.
Within ten minutes, a FacebBook reader has noticed it.
Am happy that my posts ae being read carefully.
I shall be posting on the antiquiy of Tamil and its status,on par with Sanskrit.
And on Telugu and Kannada which are also ancient, with more affinity to Sanskrit.
