Bengali Language information
Bengali, an eastern Indo-Aryan language. The Bengali alphabet is derived from the Brahmi alphabet. It is related to the Devanagari alphabet, from which it started to diverge in the 11th Century AD.
Bengali has two literary styles called Sadhubhasa (elegant language) and Chaltibhasa (current language). The former is the traditional literary style based on Middle Bengali of the sixteenth century, while the later is a 20th century creation and is based on the speech of educated people in Calcutta. The differences between the two styles are not huge and involve mainly forms of pronouns and verb conjugations.
