معنی
Asking for the distinction between two things
زمینه فرهنگی
In Kolkata, you might hear 'পার্থক্য' (Parthokko) slightly more in formal contexts, but 'তফাৎ' is the king of the fish market and the tea stall. In Dhaka, 'তফাৎ' is extremely common. The '-ta' suffix is often emphasized to show genuine curiosity or a bit of skepticism during bargaining. For the 'Bhadralok', using this phrase in an Adda shows you are looking for 'sh सूक्ष्म' (subtle) nuances, which is highly respected. In modern offices in IT hubs like Salt Lake or Gulshan, this phrase is used to compare software versions or project proposals.
Use 'Asol'
Add 'আসল' (Asol) before 'তফাৎটা' to sound like a native speaker who is looking for the 'real' catch.
Avoid 'Ki'
While 'Tofat ki?' is okay, 'Tofat kothay?' sounds much more natural in 90% of situations.

10 سوالIt is neutral. It's perfectly fine for business meetings and daily life, but 'Parthokko' is used in formal writing.
Yes! You can ask about the difference between two people's personalities or skills.
It acts like the word 'the'. It makes the 'difference' a specific thing you are looking for.
No, unless your tone is very aggressive. Usually, it just sounds curious.
Yes, but it sounds a bit more general or poetic. In a shop, always use '-ta'.
Start with 'তফাৎটা হলো...' (The difference is...) followed by your explanation.
Usually, 'Tofat' stays singular even if there are many differences. You'd say 'তফাৎগুলো কী কী?' for multiple differences.
Metaphorically, yes (e.g., 'the distance between our hearts'), but for miles/km, use 'Durotto'.
Yes, many Bengali songs use it to describe the gap between lovers or social classes.
