Indra split the words in the Vedas 3 ways. The 3 parts are, a prefix, a root and a suffix. Indra's helper in this task was Vayu.

वाग्वै पराच्य व्याकृतावद् ते देवा इन्द्रम् अब्रुवन् इमाम्न्नो वाचम् व्याकुर्विति

The first Grammar system is therefore attributed to Indra. The first discreet sounds (alphabets) are attributed to the Maruts, the helpers of Vayu.
