The original Buddhist texts were written in which of the following language?

Pali

The correct answer is Option 1- Pali

The original Buddhist texts were primarily composed in the ancient Indian language of Pali. Pali is a Prakrit language that was used in the region of ancient India where Buddhism originated and flourished. It became the preferred language for the oral transmission and later the written recording of Buddhist teachings, including the Tripitaka (Tipitaka), the collection of scriptures considered canonical in Theravada Buddhism. However, it's worth noting that some Buddhist texts were also composed in Sanskrit and other ancient Indian languages.
