It is the seventh most spoken language in the world but somehow it doesn't get the attention it deserves. I'm here to rectify that. Did you know that the national anthem of India was written in Bengali? And that the first Nobel Prize in Literature won by a non-European was for this language? And that the International Mother Language Day was declared by UNESCO following the struggle of Bengali speakers for their language recognition? Did I manage to spark your interest?
