General definition (in Hinduism)
Source: archive.org: The Saga Of The Indo-aryansThe Greeks looked to the East for their old home and placed Mount Olympus in Asia Minor, a sure indication of the place of their immediate westward emigration. It is no wonder that, in the light of the above facts, the language spoken by these “fair-haired Achaeans” was closely related to other tongues current in Asia Minor, the Khēta, the Hurrian and the Mithrani. We have already seen that these languages were a form of Prākrit, and in their literary shape, strongly reminiscent of Sanskrit.
