These two lower and higher courses are also known as the first year and second year introductory courses consisting of 21 and 20 lessons respectively.

    In brief, the introductory courses cover all the important items of Sanskrit language and grammar, highlighting the general rules and ignoring most of the unusual exceptions, the items of grammar based on the actual requirements of the texts supplied in the lessons. The grammar is further supplemented by the grammatical notes which follow the text.
