Buddism and Sanskrit
Sanskrit had some influence on the Chinese culture because Buddhism was initially transmitted to China in Sanskrit. Many Chinese Buddhist scriptures were written with Chinese transliterations of Sanskrit words. Some Chinese proverbs use Buddhist terms that originate from Sanskrit.
in 18th century, the Tibetan scholar Si-tu 'mahapandita' revises Buddhist canonical translations, translating Sanskrit grammatical text into Tibetan. At the time, Sanskrit is fully understood by Tibetan in Buddhism religion.
Sanskrit words are found in many present-day languages. For instance the Thai language contains many loan words from Sanskrit.
