Do you find yourself unable to read and speak Bengali? Constantly trying to keep up with conversations? Clueless about how to begin learning the Bengali language?

If you are too busy to attend a weekly session or sit through online video courses, this book will take you through the simple learning process in bite-size steps. Easy to digest with intelligent use of phonemes and English word comparisons (referred to as partial transliterations) to complement pronunciation. The book is written primarily in the formal 'book' dialect of the language, Shuddho basha. More commonly spoken in Dhaka, Bangladesh, utilised in formal TV, media, and newspapers. There are, however, clear references to the more informal dialect, Sylhetti basha where appropriate. More commonly spoken in Sylhet, Bangladesh. This is an extra dimension to the book as there are a substantial number of expats from Sylhet dotted all over the world. Thus with this book alone, one is able to sit comfortably, whether at home, abroad, or on a plane, and master the Bengali language. The sixth most spoken language in the world.
