From 1900 BC-300 BC we do not have sculptures. Vedic people did not make sculptures, at least not in durable materials. During the Mauryan Empire (320-185 BCE), royal sculptures were built on top of pillars.

According to the research, alcohol reduces social anxiety and lowers inhibitions. This creates a psychological effect where people feel more relaxed and confident, allowing them to speak without the usual hesitation they would have when sober. This reduced anxiety makes the brain feel more comfortable accessing second languages—thus, "English" starts flowing out. However, this doesn’t mean their language skills are actually improving. In fact, alcohol impairs cognitive functions such as memory and judgment, which can lead to mispronunciations and incorrect usage of words.

Researchers have also noted that this effect is short-lived. Once the alcohol's influence wears off, the same person may find it difficult to string together coherent sentences in a second language. Moreover, excessive drinking can have the opposite effect, impairing speech altogether.

The consequences of alcohol consumption don’t stop at temporary language confidence. Prolonged drinking has been linked to brain damage, particularly to the cortex, the part of the brain responsible for memory, decision-making, and creativity. People suffering from Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) experience long-term damage that affects more than just language fluency.
