Review Summary

  • Amar nam [Name]

자주 하는 실수

Bengali word order is subject-first. 'Amar' (my) should come before 'nam' (name).

Wrong: Nam Amar John
정답: Amar nam John

'Achen' is the formal/polite form for 'are you'. 'Achi' refers to yourself.

Wrong: Kemon achi?
정답: Kemon achen?

Adding 'you' after Dhonnobad is redundant as the word already implies thanks to the listener.

Wrong: Dhonnobad you
정답: Dhonnobad
