I read a post of Dmytro on Sanskrit and Pali in the Pali forum of
Esangha, and I wanted to ask few questions:
1. It is correct to say, that Pali (as I understood it, is a mixture
of dialects that are now known as Pali, the language of the Theravada
canon) is actually a descendent of the Vedic language and not of
Sanskrit as a lot of scholars used to say?
2. Does Ardha-Magadhi is a dialect of Vedic?
3. What than is the connection between Pali and Sanskrit, and is
Sanskrit a systematic Vedic?
