Stating an intention to return at another time
خلفية ثقافية
In Kolkata, 'Ami pore ashbo' is the ultimate haggling tool. It signals to the vendor that you are willing to walk away, often prompting them to lower the price immediately. In Dhaka, hospitality is paramount. If you say 'Ami pore ashbo' when leaving a dinner, the host will likely insist you stay longer. It's a dance of politeness. Among Bengalis living abroad, this phrase is often used in community WhatsApp groups to signal that someone will join a Zoom call or an event later. In villages, 'coming' (asha) is used instead of 'going' (jawa) because 'going' is associated with death or final departure. 'Ami ashchi' or 'Ami pore ashbo' is spiritually safer.
The Haggling Secret
If you use this in a market, start walking away. If the seller calls you back, you've won the negotiation!
Don't be too vague
If you really mean to return for a business meeting, add a specific time like 'ami 2-toye ashbo' (I'll come at 2).
