Learning Bengali Language
Here you can find the translation of the 50 most important words and expressions into Bengali. If you are about to travel to Bangladesh, this is exactly what you. I think learning Bengali for anyone whose native language is one of the Indo-European family is much easier. If your native language is not of the Indo-European family, Bengali can be quite challenging, even in terms of basic aspects like pronunciation and sentence construction.
