Opis

With almost 200 million native speakers, Bangla ranks among the top ten languages in the world in number of speakers; yet despite its status as a major world language and its rich and lengthy literary tradition, it remains under-described. Accessible to both linguists and learners, the CASL Bangla grammar offers plentiful examples with native orthography, Roman transliteration, and morpheme-by-morpheme glossing to illustrate the various features of the language. It also includes comparative information of use to linguists, and highlights major morphological differences between West Bengali and and Bangladeshi standards. "
