I hate ancient writing, I can never understand them-_-. Reading a passage from the Rig Veda and I have no idea what exactly is it trying to say.

Rigveda sanskrits? You're studying old Indian texts? O.o

Wait a minute. Lirange aren't you like a junior? Why are you taking World History in junior year?

Oh, ok. Never mind. I thought you were like my age. Nvm.

You're not reading them in sanskrit, are you? You at least have the translations?

lolxD. No, it's translated in English. Not modern English, but way back then English so it's hard for me to to understand exactly what it's trying to say. I get the broad picture but that's not enough to answer my homework questions.
