Review Summary
- Nomoshkar
- Amar nam [Name]
- Kemon achen?
- Dhonnobad
- Biday
常见错误
Bengali word order is subject-first. 'Amar' (my) should come before 'nam' (name).
'Achen' is the formal/polite form for 'are you'. 'Achi' refers to yourself.
Adding 'you' after Dhonnobad is redundant as the word already implies thanks to the listener.
