Detailed Solution

The languages utilised to create the inscriptions were Prakrit, Greek, and Aramaic.
The significance of words or images etched into solid objects like metals, rocks, bricks, or wood has been recognised by historians over time. In the past, the inscription was among the most used methods of keeping records. Greek, Aramaic, and Prakrit were all used in their writing. The edicts are written in a peculiar and out-of-date variety of Prakrit. The Prakrit inscriptions were written in the easy-to-read and understandable Brahmi and Kharosthi scripts. The inscriptions that were discovered in Pakistan are written in the Kharosthi script. Greek or Aramaic are used to write the remaining Edicts. Egyptian hieroglyphs were the official writing system used in ancient Egypt to record the Egyptian language.
