Bengali Pronunciation ō Etymology 1 bn inc-obn -অঅ -aa -aẇa, from bn pra -𑀅𑀅 -aẇa, -aẏa, from earlier pra -𑀅𑀓​, from the ending pra -𑀅 of a-stems with the pleonastic extension pra -𑀓, ​from bn sa -क -ক​. The stem ending itself yielded the short inc-obn -অ -a, which became Schwa deletion in Indo-Aryan languages lost in Middle Bengali c. 14th-15th centuries CE, with the current bn -ও coming from the coalescence of the long inc-obn -অঅ -aa. Alternative forms bn -অ Suffix extends nouns and adjectives Etymology 2 See bn -উ. Alternative forms bn -উ Suffix forms verbal adjectives with reduplication from verbs, indicating imminence of the action bn কাঁদা -ও কাঁদো কাঁদো কাঁদ্ to cry about to cry
