To avoid possible confusion, this is NOT a page belonging to the linguist Tanmoy Bhattacharya. He is my namesake, one amongst the many described in my namesakes page, and is much better qualified to write a page like this, but since he has not done so, I write this very small page.

This page will ultimately contain examples of old bengali with proper translations. Since I do not know old bengali, that will take time. In the meantime, this will contain a lot of mistakes.

An utf-8 encoded version of this page is available.
