Bengali/Sentence patterns

In Bengali, a simple sentence is formed by an independent clause or principal clause. Basic Structural Difference between Bengali and English Basic sentence pattern The basic sentence pattern in English is subject + verb + object (SVO), whereas in Bengali it is subject + object + verb (SOV). Example: English: I (S) eat (V) rice (O). Bengali: আমি (“I”) (S) ভাত (“rice”) (O) খাই (“eat”) (V). Auxiliary verbs Auxiliary verbs are absent in Bengali. Example: English: I (Pronoun) am (Auxiliary verb) reading (Main verb) a (Article) book (Noun). Bengali: আমি (“I”, Pronoun) একটি (“a”, Article) বই (“book”, Noun) পড়ছি (“am reading”, Main verb). Prepositions A preposition is a word placed before a noun, pronoun, or noun-equivalent to show its relation to another word in the sentence. In Bengali, bibhakti will be placed after the noun, pronoun, or noun-equivalent. Example: English: The man sat on the chair. Bengali: লোকটি চেয়ারটিতে বসল. Here 'তে (te)' is bibhakti
