Prakrit was the language used by ordinary people in the past.
Traditional regional tongues known as Prakrit languages were spread throughout India during the Middle Indo-Aryan era. They were found in inscriptions and writings from that period. Localities in India spoke these languages between the third century BCE and the eighth century AD. Prakrit is the language that was spoken in the middle of this era. Later, Pali and Sanskrit were developed. Gautam Buddha gave most of his sermons in the Prakrit language so ordinary people could easily understand them.
