Q: Sanskrit Alphabetical Order
********************************
Why are the Sanskrit vowels and consonants arranged into separate
groups? This question is important becausee in other Indo-European
languages this order is not found. Is this order derived after
ancient Indo-Europeans came in contact with the then residents
of India, (Dravidians?).
Any pointers or references?
