    I'm not too sure, but and Indian acquaintance has told me the following:

    Namaste, Mother - हे मातः नमस्ते| (he maata namaste)
    Mother, I love you - हे मातः अहं त्वयि स्निह्यामि| (he maata ahaM tvayi snihyaami)

    "Namaste" is Hindi for thanks.

    Hope you can use it.

    हे मातः नमस्ते| = O Mother, bow to you.

    "Namaste" is basically Sanskrit word not Hindi.

    Thanks you for the clarification. However, let me say that though, as you say, Namaste is basically Sanskrit, the word namaste must be a usual greeting in India, for I have heard it many times whenever I have visited that subcontinent. Thanks, anyway

    Yes. It is the common greeting in India.

    I would assume that you are a Hindu. I'm a Spaniard. It might be of ineterest for you to know that in Spain it has been recently published a Sanskkrit/Catalan/Sanskrit dictionary (Catalan is one of the 4 official languages spoken in Spain) which was presented in New Delhi last summer by one of our politics.
    The funny thing about it is that there are perhaps only 2 or 3 persons in our country who are able to communicate in Sanskrit and I understand that even in India there are only a few thousand who speak it fluently. Is that true?
    Which would you say is the most spoken language in India, aside of English?

    Only a few hundred in India are fluent in Sanskrit.
    Hindi is the national language of India & is widely spoken in India.
