Bhoomi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bhoomi means 'Earth' in Prakrit, an ancient language once commonly spoken in India(a vernacular version of Sanskrit). Prakrit was the language that Buddha spoke and eventually morphed into modern day Hindi.

'Bhoomi' is also the source for other derived words such as Bhoomi Devi (Mother Earth), Bhoomi Deva (God of Earth), Booma etc.
