뜻
Meeting someone after a long interval.
문화적 배경
In Kolkata, you might hear 'Onek din bade dekha holo'. The word 'bade' is a Persian-influenced alternative to 'por' and is very common in the local dialect. In Dhaka, the phrase is often followed by 'Kothay chhilen?' (Where were you?). It's a sign of care and interest in the person's life during their absence. For Bengalis living abroad, this phrase is the ultimate 'welcome home' signal. It is used to bridge the years of separation during visits to the motherland. In villages, this greeting is often accompanied by an invitation to one's home for tea or a meal. Social bonds are very tight, and a long absence is always noted.
Smile is Key
In Bengali culture, this phrase is almost always accompanied by a warm smile and direct eye contact.
Don't Overuse
If you saw the person last week, this phrase sounds sarcastic. Use it for gaps of at least 2-3 weeks.

Add 'যে'
Adding 'je' at the end ('দেখা হলো যে!') makes you sound much more like a native speaker, adding a touch of pleasant surprise.
Follow up
Never stop at just this phrase. Always follow up with 'Kemon achhen?' (How are you?).
