Bangladesh, Language _ Culture . . . .
From my old boss, to a couple of my friends from high school I have met a couple of people from Bangladesh and for some reason; through conversation I have become more and more interested in their culture.
I love their language!
I would ♥ to learn how to speak it fluently
But of course that would take much time
So im going to start now .
The only thing I know how to say is “Aami Tomake khub Bhalobashi “
Which means [ I love you very Much ] . . .
I learned that from a friend. It took me two seconds to memorize it so memorizing should be easy…understanding is the hard part.
Want To Learn !?
Heres my study guide , that i got off of a website..
